Join the Glyptoteket and Folkehøjskolernes Forening for the annual New Year's singalong from the Højskolesangbog, the Danish folk high school songbook. The event takes place in the museum's festival hall, a historic setting that suits both new and old songs.
The evening mixes solemn and relaxed moods. You will sing as well as listen, with songs about everyday life, the national and the global, faith, hope and love. The repertoire ranges from Grundtvig to popular culture.
The house band features Johanne Louise Schmidt, Ole Kibsgaard and Emil de Waal, with Rasmus Skov Borring as master of ceremonies. Songwriter Nikolaj Paakjær and author Shekufe Tadayoni Heiberg also perform, and the Silkeborg Højskole choir, led by Marianne Søgaard, takes part. Ole Kibsgaard is also due to perform with Kaya Brüel at Cosmos and Koncertkapellet in November 2026.
