The Youth Symphony Orchestra (JSO) of the New Apostolic Church of West Germany was founded in the spring of 2004 to give the annual youth days a musical frame. Their performance was such a great success that the orchestra gave its first charity concert in the Grugahalle Essen in 2005. The event raised more than EUR 30,000 for a good cause. Over the following years, the orchestra regularly gave charity concerts also performing in countries such as Switzerland, the Netherlands and South Africa, to name but a few. The success of the JSO was in part due their varied repertoire, which focuses on classical music and film music but also covers sacred music, jazz and musicals.

The 20 Years of JSO gala concert marks the anniversary of the 70-strong orchestra, which will perform alongside the youth concert choir (JKC) of the New Apostolic Church of West Germany.

The first half of the concert will feature symphonic movements by Dvořák and Beethoven as well as medleys from “The Lion King”, “Pirates of the Caribbean” and “The Phantom of the Opera”. The roughly 200 young singers of the JKC will join the orchestra for the second half of the concert to perform, amongst others, Psalm 42 by Mendelssohn as well as a medley from the musical “Aladdin”.

Parking Flat Day Rate

Make use of our flat day rate for parking. It only costs 4 euros.

That will save you time waiting at the pay stations after the end of events.
