Theatre of Voices brings its Christmas concert to Trinitatis Kirke in the form of a musical triptych: three kinds of music, each presented three times. The programme combines carols and Christmas songs from across Europe, organ music from the 17th and 18th centuries built around the Puer Natus motif, and sections of Thomas Tallis's Missa Puer Natus.
Tallis's mass was lost after his time and only came back into view when three fragments surfaced around 1928. Music scholars spent decades reconstructing enough material for all three movements to be performed, and it is now regarded as one of Tallis's finest works. The concert is led by Paul Hillier, who is also the ensemble's artistic director.
Soprano Kristin Mulders, who sings in the concert, also has two Fredagskoncert events at Trinitatis Kirke later this year, on 6 November and 11 December.
