Your Very Special Advent Calendar
Whilst our excitement and joy for Christmas heightens, each day awaits you with its own surprise as a door of the digital Advent calendar opens.
In 24 short videos I will take you on a journey through the world of piano music, presenting carefully selected pieces of music and introducing them with a few words. You will get to meet six female and eighteen male composers, who – following the spirit of the Advent calendar – will remain secret for now and whose identity we will uncover together over the course of December. You will for sure recognize some famous composers, but also discover some hidden gems who come from all around the world. Thus, you will enjoy highlights of 295 years of music history.

The Story
The Musical Advent Calendar was born in November 2020 facing another Corona lockdown when I felt the urgent wish to still share music with people. Within days I purchased a camera and microphones and the recording adventure was ready to start. As the feedback was very positive, two more editions followed and I am very delighted to reach a growing international audience, as the Advent Calendar has become one of my dearest projects. Thus, I am very happy to welcome you to the fourth edition of the Musical Advent Calendar this year!
