Join Peter and Kathleen van de Graaff and fellow classical music enthusiasts for extraordinary journey through central Germany – with a focus on the life and music of Johann Sebastian Bach and other great composers.

You’ll visit Handel’s birthplace of Halle, the homes of Mendelsohn and Schumann, enjoy a private tour of the Semperoper Dresden, and attend several fabulous classical music performances along the way. In addition to the rich music, you’ll immerse yourselves in the art, food, history, and wine of Germany.
