Experience Franz von Chossy live on June 13th
Franz von Chossy’s compositions will be featured in a concert at Muziekcentrum Leiden on June 13, 2026. Chossy (1896-1937) was a German composer associated with the *Neue Sachlichkeit* (New Objectivity) movement in music. His style is characterized by a stark, often ironic, and deliberately anti-romantic aesthetic. Frequently employing cabaret and popular song forms, his works blend dissonance with tonal elements, displaying a dry wit and a critical perspective on contemporary society. Though his career was cut short by his early death, he is now recognized for his unique voice within interwar German music.
Muziekcentrum Leiden is a prominent concert hall and music education facility located in the historic center of Leiden. Originally established as a school for musical study in 1984, it has evolved into a multifaceted institution hosting performances across various genres – classical, jazz, world music – alongside its continued educational programs. The building itself incorporates several historical structures, including the former Pesthuis (pest house), reflecting Leiden’s rich civic history.
