When sound becomes visible
The Crypt Organ was designed as a special instrument: built transparently, with visible mechanical parts and a concept that makes the journey from air to music tangible. This evening draws its tension from this: from closeness, precision, and the rare moment when organ sound is not only heard but nearly observed.

A space with intense atmosphere
The crypt of the Kreuzkirche is said to possess an intimate character, fostering meditation and prayer; at the same time, it is a special place for concert nights with a concentrated live atmosphere. The event takes place in the crypt of the Kreuzkirche Bonn, with the entrance located at the Protestant church.

Church music with character
The church music at Kreuzkirche in Bonn stands for a vibrant environment with around 250 active musicians, ranging from vocal music to symphonies. Therefore, the concert evening is not only about the anniversary of the organ, but also about the cultivated musical authority of this house, which has been combining tradition and innovation for years.
