Christmas elves, fir trees decorated with small Danish flags, and lots of candles make Christmas in Denmark particularly hygge. And, of course, music is also part of the Christmas tradition. The "Nordic Christmas" program celebrates the festival of love in a special way with selected Christmas carols from Northern Europe. Helene Blum and her husband Harald Haugaard have made a name for themselves with modern Nordic folk, bringing traditional songs from their Danish homeland into the here and now with contemporary arrangements - and this can also be wonderfully applied to Advent and Christmas songs. Together with other musicians, they present a musical Christmas in this concert in Wiesbaden's Ringkirche, which boasts all the beauty of the Nordic Advent season.

Nordic Christmas

Evangelical Ring Church Congregation

Christmas is a time to find peace and to listen. To hear what is important in life. Christmas is full of traditions that connect people across age boundaries and link the present with the past. Singer Helene Blum and violinist Harald Haugaard bring the special atmosphere of the Nordic winter into the concert hall. Their programme »Nordic Christmas« celebrates this auspicious time with authentic and lovingly selected pieces and stories. The Danish musicians and their changing guests skilfully tell of the little moments, and between the notes the audience sees the tracks in the snow, hears the goblins giggling and the reindeer rattling. Time seems to stand still – until the next drum roll sounds and a lively dance begins...
