Based on performances in 2022 and 2023, the program for this concert contrasted music from Bohemia and Germany in the 17th century. Featuring violinist Anaïs Chen and singer Yusuke Watanabe as guests, the concert offered a wider range of musical expression than the previous concert through a program incorporating Habsburg Catholic music and cantatas, which were gradually gaining popularity in Germany at the time.
