7:30 p.m., Church Rougemont
Jan Vogler moves fluidly between life on stage and his role as a curator. Since 2009, the cellist has shaped the Dresden Music Festival as its Artistic Director – and now he invites the internationally acclaimed organist Christian Schmitt to perform on the new Thomas Organ of the Rougemont Church. Together, they craft an impressive programme dedicated to Bach and the composers who followed in his footsteps.
