Edition 2025 — Bach Weeks

The Thuringian Bach Weeks 2025 delighted around 17,800 visitors with approximately 50 concerts in the Bach cities of Erfurt, Eisenach, Weimar, and Arnstadt. International top ensembles met the musical heritage of Johann Sebastian Bach in his authentic places of activity in Thuringia.

Bach Weeks 2025 in Review

Around 17,800 visitors experienced the Baroque festival in Thuringia in 2025. Erfurt once again served as one of the central venues: high-caliber concerts took place in St. Mary's Cathedral, Predigerkirche, and Erfurt Theatre. The festival once again presented its proven format: renowned ensembles of early music, young scholarship holders of the Bach Fellowship, and concerts at historic Bach locations.

A highlight in 2025 was the project «The Paths of Bach», which traced Bach's life stages between Wolfenbüttel and Lübeck – a format that will be continued in May 2026 with the French ensemble Pygmalion.

Highlights

Around 50 concerts in Erfurt, Eisenach, Weimar, and Arnstadt, «The Paths of Bach» project, scholarship holders of the Glenn Gould Bach Fellowship.

Prices
