The bandura is an old stringed musical instrument that exists only in Ukraine.
With 65 – 70 strings, a bandura produces a particularly wide range of musical sounds and is therefore often called a "small music orchestra".
We are pleased to be able to enjoy these traditional Ukrainian melodies in our church this evening and cordially invite you to do so.
The concert starts at 7.30 pm.
Admission is free (collection).

Christ lay in Death Bonds BWV 4
Look, dear God, how my enemy BWV 153
The Lord Thinks of Us BWV 196


Bach wrote the cantata "Look, dear God, like my enemy" (BWV 153) in his first year in Leipzig for the Sunday after New Year's Day 1724. The prescribed readings were the flight to Egypt. The unknown librettist took the murder of the children in Bethlehem as an opportunity to shed light on the situation of the Christian, who is besieged by enemies. This cantata is framed by two early works: "Christ lag in Todes Banden" (BWV 4) and "Der Herr denktt an uns" BWV 196. The finale is a wedding cantata, which Bach probably composed for the marriage of a friend. The text is completely attuned to the theme of Christian marriage and is based on Psalm 115.

The Association
Committed musicians came together in Chur in 2019 to perform works by Johann Sebastian Bach. After successful first concerts, the Bach-Verein Chur was founded in the sense of a support association. This has set itself the goal of rehearsing concerts with music by J. S. Bach every year and, if possible, taking local musicians into account. From initial ripiano tasks, a 25-member choir of advanced amateur singers has been formed. The soloist and instrumental ensemble has been able to establish itself over the years. To date, the Bach-Verein Chur has performed 21 Bach cantatas. At the beginning of April 2022, the "St. John Passion", one of the most important works of church music, was on the program. In addition to the two usual concert weekends in Chur and the surrounding area, an engagement on October 27, 2024 also took our ensemble to Weiningen ZH - where a kind of "best-of" from our previous programs of recent years was heard.

From big stages to exclusive live sets – three thoroughbred musicians who play their way directly into the hearts of their fans with their unmistakable style and flair for special moments: Adrian Kübler (vocals/guitar), Moritz Vontobel (drums) and Luca Burkhalter (keyboard) – that's Baba Shrimps.

For over a decade, the friends have been making music together - from rousing anthems to soulful ballads, Baba Shrimps skillfully combine different genres, making them one of the most exciting and versatile bands of their generation.

Their album "III" climbed to the top of the Swiss album charts in 2019 and impressively cemented their position in the national music scene. After a creative dry spell and personal challenges, the trio returned virtuosically in 2024 with the EP "Best Days" - a liberating blow that released new energy and inspiration. With the release of the single "Small Town King" at the beginning of 2025, the band announces: The next chapter has been written, and a new album is in the starting blocks!
