Joyful, beautiful sparks of the gods

Cornelia von Kerssenbrock conducts our internationally staffed Festival Orchestra Immling, the Festival Choir Immling, and the soloists of the 30th IMMLING FESTIVAL as we present three masterpieces of classical music in one evening. “Also sprach Zarathustra” is a sound epic by Richard Strauss about humanity's quest for knowledge. In “Don Juan,” we encounter man in all his vitality, desire, and passion. And Beethoven's 9th Symphony is an appeal for community, joy, and friendship among nations, the unifying power of music that transcends borders. "All men shall become brothers."
