Let the Christmas peace settle in with Bach's Christmas Oratorio, performed in parts one to three by Kammerkoret Terpsichore. The choir is a mix of chorales, arias, jubilant choruses, timpani and trumpets, all in a lively alternation.
The concert returns to the recently renovated Helligaandskirken, whose new stone floor is said to support the acoustics for this Baroque work. The choir was once the core of the Copenhagen Oratorio Choir, which performed Handel's Messiah in the same church for many years.
The soloists are Signe Haugaard Lauridsen (soprano), Berte Wiggers Lyneborg (alto), Magnus Løvlie (tenor) and Magnus Mariegaard (baritone), accompanied by Kammerorkestret Musica under conductor Torsten Mariegaard. Signe Haugaard Lauridsen and the other soloists also perform the same programme on 3 December.
