The mayor of Leipzig has announced that the former Gewandhaus Kapellmeister will be brought back for burial from the United States, where he spent most of his last years.

There will be a memorial concert in Bach’s church, St Thomas’s, and Kurt Masur will be laid to rest in the grove of honour in the city’s southern cemetery.

The funeral will take place in mid-January.
