An evening full of arias, emotion, and dazzling voices in the Apostle Church
With the opera and operetta evening Rosenband, the audience can expect a stylish concert evening in the Protestant Apostle Church Gelsenkirchen on September 27, 2026. Soprano Diana Petrova Darnea, baritone Piotr Prochera, and pianist Desar Sulejmani combine vocal elegance with musical intimacy, creating a concert experience that hovers between opera, operetta, and fine chamber music.
Voices that light up the space
The Apostle Church, with its historically grown church space, provides a suitable setting for a program that focuses on timbre, expression, and text clarity. In this live atmosphere, soprano and baritone unfold their entire range: from shimmering lightness to dramatic depth. Especially in an acoustically present church space, the synchronization between voice and piano gains additional tension.
Opera art with experience and stage presence
Diana Petrova Darnea has been internationally recognized for her singing career and has appeared on stage with roles from Mozart, Offenbach, and Bernstein, among others. Piotr Prochera brings a broad repertoire from Mozart, Rossini, Verdi, Puccini, Britten, Henze, and contemporary opera. This artistic depth promises a program with high authority, where technique, expression, and stage performance come together.
Between operetta charm and fine dramaturgy
An opera and operetta evening thrives on contrasts: dance-like lightness, lyrical arcs, and surprising temperaments. This is where the magic of Rosenband occurs. The audience can look forward to a musical journey that presents familiar sound worlds in a new light and allows the evening to breathe anew through smart orchestration at the piano.

The Apostle Church on Horster Straße 35 is one of the distinctive Protestant churches in Gelsenkirchen-Buer. According to the community, the church venue offers around 350 seats and barrier-free access.
