Martin Lehmann has been the 29th Kreuzkantor since autumn 2022, holding one of the most prestigious posts in Protestant church music. As a child and teenager, he was himself a member of the Kreuzchor; he later studied choral and orchestral conducting in Dresden. During his studies, he gained valuable experience as an assistant to Hans-Christoph Rademann at the Dresdner Kammerchor. Following posts in Leipzig and Wuppertal, he took over as director of the Windsbacher Knabenchor in 2012 for a ten-year term.

Since 2006, Claudia Reh has been presenting light graphics and live painting as performative works under her label "Echtzeitlicht". A resident of Dresden and qualified landscape architect, she has also been active in the field of animation and documentary film since 2009, for which she additionally studied documentary film directing in Berlin. Alongside international festival entries in the fields of light art and film, she realises theatre projects, music performances and workshops with children, young people and adults.

The Dresdner Kreuzchor is one of the oldest and most famous boys' choirs in the world. Even after more than 800 years, one of its most important tasks is to sing in the liturgical services of the Kreuzkirche on Dresden's Altmarkt, where it performs in vespers and church services and regularly gives concerts with outstanding works of sacred music. In addition, the Crucians (Kruzianer), who have been singing under the direction of Martin Lehmann since 2022, regularly go on tours at home and abroad as cultural ambassadors for Dresden.
