After several years, when the common song has really made its popular comeback, it is quite natural to celebrate Carl Nielsen's birthday with song. Come and sing along to some of his beloved national treasures, hear the orchestra unfold in breathtaking symphonic movements, and join us on the journey back to Nielsen's Funen origins.

The Danish Song - Carl Nielsen's Birthday

Odense Concert Hall

Singer and songwriter Helene Blum, together with violinist and composer Harald Haugaard, have distinguished themselves as some of the finest interpreters and innovators of the rich and vibrant Nordic cultural heritage.

Since 2007, they have let the music, traditions and stories of Christmas unfold in an annual Nordic Christmas tour, where their own songs and compositions meet original interpretations of old shows, hymns and dance music in a timeless universe that at once sounds recognizable and but very refreshing. For these concerts, the Nordic Christmas concert unfolds in a large format, when Sønderjylland's Symphony Orchestra meets the two folk musicians under the direction of Phillip Faber.
