Concert »The Most Beautiful Songs of Heaven« – Björn Casapietra

A Tenor on Usedom

Björn Casapietra, born in Genoa in 1970, is one of Germany's most famous tenors. He will be performing his programme »The Most Beautiful Songs of Heaven« on July 4, 2026, at the Evangelical Church in Zinnowitz on the island of Usedom. The concert is part of the concert season of the Baltic Sea resort in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district, which uses church spaces as venues for classical music.

A Programme Between Heaven and Earth

»The Most Beautiful Songs of Heaven« combines sacred church music, world-famous ballads, and spiritual songs. The programme includes works such as Schubert's »Ave Maria«, Mozart's »Ave Verum«, Leonard Cohen's »Hallelujah«, »You Raise Me Up«, and the touching film melody »Unchained Melody«. Casapietra will be accompanied on the piano.

Concert in a Church Atmosphere

With its acoustics and ambiance, the Evangelical Church of Zinnowitz offers a worthy setting for the concert. Sacred and secular vocal masterpieces unfold a special effect in this space. The concert appeals to both lovers of classical music and holidaymakers seeking a cultural evening on the Baltic Sea.

Culture in the Seaside Resort

Zinnowitz cultivates a vibrant concert tradition. In addition to folk festivals and open-air events, classical concerts in churches and at the bandstand shape the cultural life of the town. Casapietra's guest performance is a highlight of this programme in the summer of 2026.
