Music On Tour - Choir and Band Weekend
Tresckowstraße 7, 20259 Hamburg
Singing & making music
Hello everyone! I’m Robin. I used to be a singing student at SINGLIEBE; today, I create projects as a musician and singer. I work for Gemeindejugendwerk Norddeutschland, a Protestant free-church youth organization. Music and community are at the heart of what we do; you don’t have to believe anything specific to join us. One weekend. One choir. One concert under floodlights. Do you enjoy singing, but weekly rehearsals over several months aren’t for you? We rehearse together for one weekend and sing Advent songs with a live band on Sunday, right on a sports field in the heart of Eimsbüttel. Under floodlights, with around 2,000 people. Who is it for? Primarily ages 16 to 27 (being a little more “experienced in life” is no problem). You don’t need choir experience, just a desire to sing. What we’ll sing The band plays funk, blues, soul, and pop in its own arrangements: from “Macht hoch die Tür” and “Feliz Navidad” and “Wonderful Dream” to “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.” Plus one original song. Here’s how it works Friday, December 11, 2026: Arrival at 5:30 p.m. at Kreuzkirche, Tresckowstraße 7, 20259 Eimsbüttel (dinner, vocal rehearsals). Saturday: Warm-up, sectional and full rehearsals with the band, and community time. Sunday: Finishing touches, soundcheck, a short performance during the Kreuzkirche service, and the concert at 5:00 p.m.; farewell at 7:00 p.m. Overnight accommodation is available on site (sleeping mat/camp bed) or at home. Price: €35 (full catering and materials). Well prepared After registering, you’ll receive sheet music and a playlist for practice. We’ll rehearse everything together at a relaxed pace; you don’t have to be perfect. Bring your people! Concert: Sunday at 5:00 p.m., Bundesstraße sports field. Admission is free; family, friends, and neighbors are warmly welcome. Our gift to the neighborhood, now in its fifth year.
