Event details

Sct. Pauls Cantori, a choir of young professional singers from Aarhus, performs Handel's Messiah in Sct. Pauls Kirke in the run-up to Christmas. The oratorio is given almost in full, and the performance has become an annual tradition started more than 20 years ago by conductor Thomas Kristian Nielsen, organist and cantor at the church.

The soloists are Julie Krog Jensen (soprano), Jara Kanzler Schmidt-Hemmet (alto), David Danholt (tenor) and Thomas Storm (bass). Accompanied by an orchestra of musicians from the regional orchestras, including several principal players, the concert offers a chance to hear established Baroque and oratorio singers in a familiar work.

  • Conductor: Thomas Kristian Nielsen
  • Soloists: Julie Krog Jensen, Jara Kanzler Schmidt-Hemmet, David Danholt, Thomas Storm

David Danholt also sings Dvořák's Stabat Mater at Helligaandskirken in Copenhagen on 22 November, and Händel's Messiah with Kammerkoret Euphonia at Marmorkirken on 28 November.
