This year Concerto Copenhagen celebrates the songs of Christmas with three magnificent Christmas concerts in collaboration with Fredensborg Castle Church Girls Choir, Trinitatis Kantori and Sct. Nicolai Cantori.

We've gathered a handful of well-known and classic Christmas tunes that in their own way celebrate what we associate with Christmas; the things that bring us closer together and create warmth and joy in the darkness of winter.

That's why Concerto Copenhagen invites you to a very special Christmas experience when we visit Elsinore Cathedral, Trinitatis Church and Køge Church. Under the musical direction of internationally renowned soprano Joanne Lunn, Concerto Copenhagen, Fredensborg Castle Church Girls Choir, Trinitatis Kantori and Sct. Nicolai Cantori will fill the churches with Christmas spirit, joy and warmth.

Audiences can look forward to an atmospheric concert experience where Christmas music traditions meet the unique interplay of voices and instruments.

Christmas hymns and songs have bound people together for centuries and form the basis of much of the classical music we know and love to listen to at Christmas. The melodies date back to medieval songs and have inspired the great European composers throughout the ages. By singing and playing them, we connect not only with each other, but also with earlier times.

These concerts will feature local choirs performing alongside Concerto Copenhagen and soprano Joanne Lunn, as well as three prominent soloists - Jakob Bloch Jespersen (bass), Anna Caroline Olesen (mezzo-soprano) and Martin Monrad Møller (tenor) - in a musical celebration that promises a Christmas atmosphere you will never forget.
