Choral Sound in Rococo: Mendelssohn's Psalm 42 fills the Münster in Lindau

On May 15, 2026, great choral music meets great architecture: In the Münster Zu Unserer Lieben Frau, the Münsterchor Spirit and the choir of Maria-Ward-Realschule present Mendelssohn's Psalm 42 as well as other works. An hour of dense concert experience in the heart of the Lindau old town – close, acoustically present, atmospherically strong.

Sound Splendor in a Historic Space

The live atmosphere of the Münster carries every tone. The baroque furnishings concentrate the sound, the galleries open the stage for a spatial choral dialogue. When the first entry rises from the choir area, the sound floats through the nave, the acoustics draw lines and let the textures shine – a concert experience with goosebump moments.

Mendelssohn's Spiritual Dramaturgy

Psalm 42 As the Deer Cries is among Mendelssohn's highly esteemed spiritual works. The careful orchestration, the interplay of solo, choir, and orchestral colors, and the final, fugued closing chorus form a dramatic arc of longing, comfort, and confidence. In the strong Münster acoustics, oboe cantilenas, a cappella passages, and the broad choral sound blanket unfold with particular intensity.

Choir Meets Choir: Voices in Dialogue

The Münsterchor Spirit and the choir of Maria-Ward-Realschule combine experience and fresh sound culture. Precise conducting, clear synchronization, and a text-aware stage performance ensure transparency in the polyphonic parts – particularly in the contrapuntal sections, the acoustic clarity of the space carries the lines to the last rows.

Audience Mood and Live Feel

Between radiant frescoes and the wide organ prospect, the special audience mood emerges that shapes sacred concert evenings in Lindau. The quiet ringing of phrases, the catching of breath before the final chorus, the shared resonance moment at the end – pure concert experience.

Conclusion

A concentrated concert evening with spiritual depth, ideal for lovers of choral music and anyone who wants to experience Mendelssohn in an authentic space. Lindau listens – and the Münster responds with sound.
