Programme Notes
Internationale Orgeltage Zürich

Tradition and diversity for over 70 years: As one of the large amateur choirs in the Zurich region, the Zurich Bach Choir offers challenging programmes with surprising musical content every year. Diversity is created here not only by an extensive and stylistically broad repertoire, but also by around 60 singers of every age group.

The International Organ Days were conceived by concert organist Prof. Christian Schmitt, in consultation with Dr. Hans-Peter Fricker, President of the Friends of the new Zurich Tonhalle Organ. They will be curated by Christian Schmitt and Prof. Tobias Willi in 2023.
