Forget the gray autumn weather. The Children's Choir of the Schola Cantorum invites you to an afternoon concert in the Festsaal of the Neues Rathaus. The young voices present a colorful program of musical rarities and well-loved favorites. The concert sets the perfect mood for the autumn season.

To mark the end of our musical semester, we celebrate the conclusion together with all of the choirs at the Taborkirche. The concert has been cancelled and will be rescheduled; the new date will be announced later.

Timed to coincide with the astronomical start of summer on July 21, we celebrate the Fête de la Musique in the green garden of the Mendelssohn House! Together with the children of our early music education program, along with parents and friends, we will make music on this day, marking the world's largest music festival. We warmly invite everyone to join in singing and to listen, especially our youngest listeners between the ages of 2 and 5.

As every year, we festively usher in the Advent season in the Upper Promenade Hall of the Neues Rathaus. What began as a wish for all the choirs of the Schola Cantorum to sing and make music together has since become a labor of love and a Leipzig tradition.

Opening of the Advent and Christmas Season

To mark the anniversary, the children's choir of the Schola Cantorum Leipzig will sing historical songs from the Imperial era at the Schulmuseum Leipzig, accompanied by harmonium. Following its restoration, the instrument will be rededicated. A sociable get-together in the foyer will follow.
