Italian Baroque in its most beautiful form: Cantabile brings Freising to life
On Saturday, June 27, 2026, the Vocal Ensemble Cantabile Freising will transform the Asam Theater into a resonance room for festive choral art. The program features Antonio Vivaldi's Gloria and Magnificat as well as other works from the Italian Baroque. The concert begins at 19:30 and combines historical performance practice with a vibrant, immediate live atmosphere.
Sound splendor between Gloria and Magnificat
The program selection promises a concert experience with brilliance and contour: Vivaldi's sacred music lives from radiant harmonies, clear orchestration, and an interplay of choral power and finely crafted solo passages. This is precisely where Cantabile steps in. The choir, based in Freising since 1998, opens with the conduction of Laure Cazin an access to that Baroque world of expression, in which affect, rhythm, and transparency support each other.
Historical performance practice meets acoustic elegance
The ensemble is accompanied by musicians from the Department of Historical Performance Practice of the Munich University of Music and Performing Arts. This lineup gives the evening a special authenticity: The articulation appears precise, the timbres remain audible, and the hall can fully unfold the fine layers of the score. Especially in the Asam Hall, such music unfolds its full effect, as voices and instruments merge naturally.
A concert with stylistic depth and a fine tension arc
Cantabile demonstrates with this program how versatile choral music can be conceived between the Renaissance and modernity – and how convincingly Baroque masterpieces can be presented today when musical experience, discipline, and expression come together. The combination of festive sound splendor, historical instrumentation, and careful rehearsal promises an evening that excites not only connoisseurs but also curious concertgoers.
Strong framework in the Asam Theater Freising
The Asam building at Marienplatz provides the perfect setting for this: centrally located, accessible for everyone, and with good transport links for concert attendance in Freising's old town. Those who immerse themselves in an evening filled with sacred music, intense choral work, and musical brilliance experience Baroque not as a museum piece, but as a vibrant presence.
Conclusion: The concert by the Vocal Ensemble Cantabile Freising promises an impressive evening filled with Baroque brilliance, precise choral sound, and atmospheric hall acoustics. Anyone wanting to experience Vivaldi's Gloria and Magnificat live should mark this date in Freising.
