The Da Capo ensemble cordially invites you to an atmospheric winter concert that offers a fascinating mix of traditional Christmas carols and contemporary choral music. In this program, well-known melodies merge with modern soundscapes that capture the magic and contemplation of the winter season.
Particularly noteworthy is the music of Norwegian composer Ola Gjeilo, whose works form a central part of the evening. With haunting and spherical compositions such as "The Rose" and "Days of Beauty", Gjeilo creates a unique musical world that captivates with its harmonic density and emotional depth. Another highlight is the powerful and moving "Ave Generosa", which is based on a text by the medieval mystic Hildegard von Bingen and captivates the audience with its floating beauty.
In addition to these modern compositions, the concert is enriched by traditional Christmas classics. The festive tones of the English Christmas carol "The First Nowell" and the melancholy "The Coventry Carol", which movingly recalls the child sacrifices of Bethlehem, will be heard. A special highlight is also an atmospheric arrangement of "Silent Night", which reinterprets the familiar melody in a touching way.
Through this varied musical journey, which offers both reflective moments and festive joy, the Da Capo ensemble aims to transport its audience into the warm atmosphere of Advent. Let yourself be enchanted by the harmonious sounds and enjoy a contemplative evening with us.
