Concert with the Moabiter Kantorei to celebrate the Bruckner Year 2024

“Non confundar in aeternum – ‘Do not perish in eternity’” is the inscription on the plinth of Anton Bruckner’s resting place in St. Florian. This venerable message is reflected in the music that will be brought to life on November 24th at 6:00 p.m. in St. Johanniskirche, Alt-Moabit 25.



Admission is free.


Experience a special concert with the Moabiter Kantorei, accompanied by the Moabiter Musikkollegium, under the direction of Cantor Tobias Koriath.


The program includes Anton Bruckner’s only completely surviving Requiem, the Requiem in D minor (WAB 39). Completed in 1849, when Bruckner was only 24 years old, this work marks a significant transition in his musical development. It represents a bridge between his early smaller works and his later, ambitious compositions.


The program is complemented by the following works:

Friedrich Kohaut (1797–1857): His Sinfonia in F minor combines classical formal language with romantic expression and is exemplary of the transition from classical to romantic. Kohaut, an Austrian composer of the 19th century, is known for his powerful and emotional orchestral works.


Gregor Josef Werner (1749–1823): His Fugue No. 1 from the six fugues shows masterful counterpoint and artistic structure. Werner, an Austrian composer and organist, is known for his contributions to church music and his virtuoso fugues.
