Magical sounds at Christmas time: Concert in Nymphenburg Palace!
A touch of Christmas blows through Munich! On Saturday, December 20, 2025, the Johannissaal in Nymphenburg Palace will be transformed into a contemplative musical refuge. From 2:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., visitors can expect the concert “Magic Sounds at Christmas” with the talented musician initiative Lirica Aeterna. This group specializes in chamber music with voice and string quartet and takes its audience on a sonic journey that extends from the early Baroque to the present.
The program promises a musical feast for the senses. Listeners can look forward to “Rejoice greatly” from Handel’s Messiah, as well as Christmas songs by Peter Cornelius and “St. Paul’s Suite" by Gustav Holst. With a duration of around 60 to 70 minutes, without an intermission, this concert offers a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of Advent to immerse yourself in the festive mood.
The talents behind the music
What is special about this concert is not just the music itself, but also the outstanding soloists. Among other things, the British mezzo-soprano Martha McLorinan appear. She has won numerous awards and has had an impressive career in oratorios, operas and recitals. Their versatility and passion for classical music make them the perfect addition to such a Christmas concert.
The music that will be heard on this day aims to touch hearts and spread festive joy. Such events are particularly important at Christmas time in order to bring the harmony of music into the busy pre-Christmas period.
A festival for young and old
The festive mood is also reinforced by other celebrations. Another highlight in Munich is the Christmas concert Simple Music Ensemble World, which also fully accounts for the bill. Classic Christmas melodies are on the program here, along with well-known pieces by ABBA, Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald. Melodies from “Harry Potter” and “Home Alone” bring not only adults into raptures, but also younger ones in the Christmas spirit.
The musicians of the Simple Music Ensemble, an international chamber music community, play with great joy and dedication to create a warm, festive atmosphere. This mix of classical music and international pop culture is sure to attract young and old to the concert.
If you want to celebrate the Christmas season properly, you have plenty of opportunity to do so in Munich! Enjoy the upcoming weeks of December with musical highlights that warm the heart and delight the spirit.
