Olivier Messiaen's La Nativité du Seigneur (The Nativity of the Lord) is a cycle of nine musical meditations on the birth of Christ. At Sct. Matthæus Kirke, the music is joined by readings and a series of atmospheric lighting scenes, creating a quiet, contemplative Christmas evening.
The concert is followed by a glass of something warm and a chance to linger together, arranged by the church in collaboration with Kulturen i Sct. Matthæus.
