Advent Sound Journey with ANTIQUA: "Stars" in Potsdam
When the Old Neuendorfer Church is bathed in warm light, the "Stars" concert evening begins, filled with historical sounds, Christmas choral music, and narrated images. The Potsdam group ANTIQUA invites you on December 6, 2026, to 90 minutes of Renaissance-Baroque-Folk-ART – reflective, varied, and very close to the special atmosphere of Advent.
Historic Instruments Meet Modern Stage Performance
ANTIQUA combines music from the Renaissance and Baroque eras with traditional folk sounds and modern arrangements. Hurdy-gurdy, crumhorns, bowed psalteries, and cornets open a colorful sound image, where old melodies shine anew. Christmas choral pieces meet instrumental lines that fluctuate between courtly music, dance music, and folk.
90 Minutes Between Sound, History, and Light
The Advent program "Stars" does not solely rely on musical precision. Christmas stories guide the evening and provide a narrative framework for the historical instruments. In the acoustics of the church, voices and instruments unfold with great intimacy, while the light ambiance creates a calm, festive atmosphere for the audience.
ANTIQUA and the Renaissance-Baroque-Folk-ART
The Potsdam group ANTIQUA has represented a distinct approach to early music for many years. Their repertoire ranges from the Middle Ages through the Baroque period to folk sounds and present influences. The focus is on music from the 16th to 18th centuries, original choral compositions, and the creative connection of historic sound colors with contemporary orchestration.
An Evening Concert for Reflection
"Stars" directs the gaze to the quiet, glowing moments of Advent. Between hurdy-gurdy, crumhorns, polyphonic singing, and stories, a concert experience emerges that appeals equally to lovers of historical sound worlds and curious Advent guests.
Conclusion: Visitors can expect an atmospheric Advent concert at the Old Neuendorfer Church with extraordinary instrumentation, Christmas songs, and a unique blend of Renaissance, Baroque, and Folk. Those wishing to experience ANTIQUA live and musically prepare for the Christmas season should not miss this evening in Potsdam.
