Concert by the Regensburger Domspatzen in Salzwedel's Marienkirche as part of the Altmark Festspiele 2026
The Altmark Festspiele brings international classical and choral music to a region famous for its Romanesque and Gothic brick churches every year. In 2026, the festival runs from May 16 to September 5 — and one of the highlights is the concert by the Regensburger Domspatzen in Salzwedel's Marienkirche on July 11 at 5 PM.
Under the direction of Max Rädlinger, the world-renowned boys' choir will perform its program 'Singfonie' — a journey through German folk songs, in which the audience is actively involved. The most beautiful melodies — 'All meine Gedanken, die ich hab', 'Am Brunnen vor dem Tore', and other classics — will be sung together. Salzwedel is the seat of the Altmark district in the state of Saxony-Anhalt, and the late Gothic Marienkirche with its 80-meter-high tower offers acoustics that are perfect for such programs.
The Altmark Festspiele primarily uses the small, often thousand-year-old churches of the Altmark — Tangermünde, Werben, Stendal, Arendsee, Diesdorf, Salzwedel. Those attending the Domspatzen concert can discover a historical program throughout the festival season that is rarely found elsewhere.
Program starts at 5 PM, duration approx. 90 minutes. The repertoire focuses on German folk songs, and the audience is invited to sing along to many pieces — an interactive choral experience that is rare and a small sensation for the Altmark.
