An evening where operatic drama meets the church's tradition of reflection, hope and contemplation. The programme centres on prayer, a theme with a special place in both opera and church music.
Soprano Cille Ebling and mezzo-soprano Helle Fabricius Grarup, both singers in the Royal Danish Theatre's opera chorus, perform with a broad repertoire, from major opera arias to more intimate concert pieces. Michael Due accompanies them on piano and organ. Audiences can hear prayers usually encountered in opera alongside well-known sacred pieces and works not originally written for opera.
Lotte Heise, known from P2 and her work as a speaker and compère, guides the evening as narrator and host.
