THE GREAT BROOK NIGHT

From 13 to 21 September 2025, the 55th Merseburg Organ Festival will take place in the Imperial Cathedral of Merseburg. Under this year's motto "Johann Sebastian Bach in the past and present - on the 275th anniversary of his death", the festival will focus on the famous works of the musical genius and their significance over the centuries. The varied programme ranges from Baroque masterpieces and the reappraisal of Bach's legacy in later centuries to modern interpretations of his music. Organists and ensembles from various Bach cities such as Eisenach, Arnstadt, Mühlhausen, Weimar and Leipzig will come to Merseburg to introduce visitors to the musical diversity of the Bach tradition.
