Overview

The 2025 Cathedral Festival once again brought together vocal ensembles, chamber music, and readings under the vaults of Magdeburg Cathedral. The Magdeburg Cathedral Choir, the Choir School, and the Märkisch Barock Baroque Orchestra marked the conclusion of the festival week.

As in previous years, the festival week followed a thematic arc and brought guest artists from Germany and abroad to one of Central Germany's most significant sacred buildings. The traditional highlight was the Gala Concert on Pentecost Sunday with the Magdeburg Cathedral Choir, the Choir School, and a Baroque Orchestra conducted by Cathedral Music Director Christian Otto—a concept that sustains the Magdeburg Cathedral Festival year after year.

Programme
