Returning to music as an adult can feel like reconnecting with a part of yourself that has always been there. That’s the spirit behind the Resonance Tour 2027, where American Music Abroad brings individual adult musicians together to rehearse, perform, and experience the musical and cultural traditions of Prague and Germany. From exploring historic cities to performing in meaningful venues, the tour gives participants the opportunity to grow as musicians, form new friendships, and experience the joy of becoming part of an ensemble with people who share their passion for music.
Prague: Beginning the Musical Journey
The Resonance Tour 2027 begins in Prague, giving adult musicians an opportunity to settle into the experience through rehearsals, cultural exploration, and their first performance together. The itinerary includes a guided tour of Prague’s Old City, time to explore independently, and a dinner cruise along the Vltava River. Participants also visit the Terezín Memorial before performing a concert in Prague. This combination of music, history, and cultural exploration sets the tone for the journey ahead, giving individual musicians the chance to connect with fellow participants while experiencing the places and stories that shape Europe’s cultural heritage.
Leipzig: Connecting With Bach’s Musical Legacy
Few cities carry as much musical weight as Leipzig, where Johann Sebastian Bach composed and directed music for nearly three decades. During the Resonance Tour 2027, adult musicians have the opportunity to explore Leipzig on a guided sightseeing tour and visit Thomaskirche, connecting with a place closely associated with Bach’s life and work. The itinerary also includes a Leipzig concert and dinner at Auerbach Keller, giving participants time to experience the city’s musical heritage alongside its broader cultural traditions. For individual musicians, these experiences add context to the music they perform while creating opportunities to share the journey with a new ensemble.
Dresden, Wittenberg and Berlin: History Meets Musical Tradition
From Leipzig, the tour continues through Dresden, Wittenberg, and Berlin, giving adult musicians opportunities to experience different chapters of Germany’s history and culture. In Dresden, participants have time to explore the city before visiting the Meissen Porcelain Factory. The journey then continues to Wittenberg, where the itinerary includes a visit to Schlosskirche and a castle tour. In Berlin, adult musicians take part in guided sightseeing, perform a short choir program at Berlin Dom, attend a full concert, and tour the Staatsoper. These experiences bring together music, architecture, history, and cultural exploration throughout the German portion of the journey.
For musicians joining an international music tour for the first time, the combination of performances, cultural experiences, and time spent exploring historic cities creates memories that extend well beyond the concert stage.
