Off to the festival season!

Stockholm’s Early Music Festival doesn’t take place until early June, but Sweden’s capital couldn’t resist hosting a special concert on a very special day. On March 21, the festival celebrates Johann Sebastian Bach’s birthday each year with the so‑called “Early Music Day.” We’re delighted to give a special concert this coming Saturday at the German Church of St. Gertrud in Stockholm. The specially designed program is called “Light and Sound,” featuring works from Schütz to Bach – what a wonderful way to start the festival season!

Five weeks later, we’ll be performing in Hamburg at the third edition of the Nordklang Festival – a fantastic, young chamber choir festival that brings together many northern German ensembles and not only offers great concerts but also workshops and a masterclass. Naturally, we’ll not only be singing in concert on April 25 (kindly announced on their website as an “absolute concert highlight” https://nordklang-festival.de/das-festival/), but also giving a workshop the following morning. Have you always wanted to step in as a member of the Calmus Ensemble? Here’s your chance to sing with us: https://nordklang-festival.de/workshops/

We’re equally excited to be performing on April 28 at the 24th International A Cappella Week in Hannover. Founded in 2001, the festival has become an essential part of Germany’s musical landscape. Each year, it showcases a wide variety of vocal styles – just the way we like it! Here’s the link to our concert: https://www.acappellawoche.com/

And we won’t just be performing at festivals in the coming weeks, but also as part of several well‑established concert series. Find more information and tickets here:
