The long-standing partnership between the Sachsenring Zwickau Choir Association and the Janaček Choir Jablonec in the Czech Republic culminated in an impressive choral symphony concert in the European Capital of Culture year 2025. More than 100 choir singers, the Vogtlandphilharmonie Greiz-Reichenbach and outstanding soloists joined forces to present works by Ludwig van Beethoven, Jiří Pavlica and Karl Jenkins. The concert centred on humanity's universal longing for peace - a communal evening that touched the heart and soul.
