ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

Fresh from opera performances in Hamburg, on the Culture Night in the Musikhuset you can experience one of Denmark's up-and-coming, young international tenors, Jonathan von Schwanenflügel, accompanied by pianist Mattias Branner, in three mini-concerts with different programs. And you can become a "Conductor for an evening" in the company of singers from the Carmina Chamber Choir and under the expert guidance of conductor Peter Hanke, Voces Academy. In addition, there are mini-concerts with students from MGK and the Chamber Choir Tourdion, a story about the house as well as cozy music in the bar with the versatile guitarist Mads Bolding and an exhibition of glass art and paintings. And then, not least, you can try decoupage when the Musikhuset's signature chairs are to be decorated under the guidance of decoupage artist Klara Szinay. The evening ends with group singing.
