Music: A Multi-talented Cantor and an Autumn of Emotional Tunes
St. Michael's Congregation in Neubrandenburg is set to host an exciting lineup of musical events as part of the "Musical Autumn & Advent 2025" series.
The series will kick off on September 21 with the Ensemble Augenblick performing their soul-stirring program "Songs that touch the soul". The Greifswald Gospel Kombinat will follow suit with their performance of psalms and spirituals on November 7 at the community center in Neubrandenburg, accommodating up to 270 visitors.
Popular music is a significant part of the services at St. Michael's every Sunday morning. Jazz, once unthinkable in a service, is occasionally on the program today. The concert series will also feature jazz artist Sarah Kaiser & Band, who will perform Advent and Christmas songs in a soul and jazz style under the motto "From Heaven Above" on December 14 at 4 PM.
Clemens Bittlinger, Albert Frey, and Andi Weiss, known as the three best-known artists of German-speaking Christian pop music, will start their Germany tour at St. Michael in November. The exact date of their performance at St. Michael's congregation is yet to be confirmed, but it is scheduled for later in the month.
The pastor and cantor of St. Michael's congregation, Pastor Jörg Albrecht and Thomas Schaer, have planned several concerts in the coming months. Thomas Schaer, who is currently the half-time cantor of St. Michael's congregation, is also a professional tango teacher in Feldberg and Greifswald.
Sophia, Laura Hein, Janne Raedel, and Jason Abraham, homegrown talents of the Michaels congregation, came together as a quartet during the corona time to support the services. The name of the musical cabaret artist performing on October 19, 2025, as part of the "Musical Herbst & Adventszeit 2025" series at the community center in Neubrandenburg is not explicitly mentioned in the available search results.
Klaus-André Eickhoff will speak about childlike faith, life crises, and hope at St. Michael's congregation on October 19. There has always been debate about the right church music in traditional communities like St. Michael's congregation, but the pastor and cantor are embracing a diverse range of musical styles to cater to the congregation's tastes.
The Ensemble Augenblick will perform again on November 21, marking the start of the Advent season. Sarah Kaiser & Band's concert is scheduled for December 14, and Clemens Bittlinger, Albert Frey, and Andi Weiss concert is scheduled for November 19 at 7 PM, marking the start of their Germany tour.
The musical events at St. Michael's Congregation promise to be a treat for music lovers, offering a unique blend of traditional and contemporary Christian music.
