Copenhagen Soloists perform Bach's B Minor Mass, often regarded as the greatest and most significant church composition in music history. Completed in 1749, the last year of his life, it is a complete mass that sums up the Baroque church tradition at its highest level.
The ensemble performs it in a soloistic format, with just eleven singers sharing the choir and solo parts, accompanied by an orchestra playing on Baroque instruments. The concert marks the ensemble's 20th anniversary in 2026, and the group specialises in historical instruments and historically informed performance.
Jakob Skjoldborg, one of the singers, also appears in Theatre of Voices' Christmas concert "Et barn er født" at Trinitatis Kirke on 4 December 2026.
