JS Bach: Christmas Oratorio with the Copenhagen Bach Choir

Church of Holmen

True to tradition, the Copenhagen Bach Choir and Orchestra will perform JS Bach's Christmas Oratorio, which is an impressive musical version of the Christmas Gospel and is one of Bach's greatest works consisting of an alternation between recitatives, beautiful arias and beautiful choral movements. The work consists of a total of 6 cantatas - one for each of the 6 days of Christmas, and in this year's concert cantatas 1, 2 and 3 will be performed, which deal with the story of the birth of the baby Jesus, the shepherds in the field and all the well-known scenes from the Christmas Gospel.

Bach's Christmas Oratorio, parts I-III in Holmen's Church

The Baroque Orchestra Originalerne.org consists of professional musicians who specialize in playing historical instruments. This makes it possible to perform the work close to the sound that Bach intended.

Hellerup Church – JS Bach, Christmas Oratorio BWV 248, Parts I – III

Hellerup Kirke

It is the evergreen classic about people like us: spoiled, self-absorbed people who are bored in their lives of luxury. The action has moved from the 1870s to 1980s Denmark – a decadent time with high hair, Rolex watches and tequila sunrises in the whiskey belt, with shrimp cocktail, Saturday chicken and permanent waves in the meatball belt and with the punk culture of misfit youth on the stone bridge. The operetta is sung in Danish by 6 of the country's best opera singers.

The bat

Carl Nielsen's Maskarade from 1906, based on Ludvig Holberg's comedy from 1724, is considered Denmark's national opera. The operatic comedy comically and lovingly leaps into the generation gap and is about different worldviews that collide. The calm, cleanliness and orderliness of the past are challenged by the will of youth to do things differently.
