The Brenkhausen Monastery

The Alphens Cossack Choir will perform a concert on Saturday 1 October 2016 in the Coptic
Orthodox monastery in Brenkhausen in Germany. This performance is part of a study
weekend of the Cossacks in Erwitzen-Nieheim.
The choir members, under the direction of conductor Arkadi Gankin, will work hard from September 29 to October 2 to work on further refinement of the singing technique, soloists,
performance, etc. The choir will withdraw for a few days in a Landgasthaus in Erwitzen- Nieheim. On Friday, September 30, baritone Georg Thauern (pictured right), known in Germany, will be giving a workshop for the choir.
In this way, we are working hard on a new series of concerts in Mijdrecht-Wilnis, Langeraar and in 2017 for the anniversary concert. The choir celebrated its tenth anniversary in April 2017.
