A Place of Green – The First Booke of Songs von Joel Frederiksen, Teil II

Concert 2: A Place of Green, Reihe XVIII: 2025-26 / Series XVIII, Season 2025/26 / Four concerts on subscription

Sunday, November 9, 2 p.m. – Bavarian National Museum, Mars-Venus Hall

With “A Place of Green,” Joel Frederiksen strikes a quiet, personal tone – a song about youth, longing, and the desire for reconciliation. With the second part of his “First Booke of Songs,” he completes an exceptional project: new songs in the spirit of the Renaissance, inspired by masters such as John Dowland and Thomas Campion, but interwoven with contemporary language and emotion. Following the successful first part in May 2024, Frederiksen continues his intimate musical dialogue with the past – touching, timeless, and intimate. A concert that carries the echo of old songs into the present.

Performers:

Emma-Lisa Roux – soprano, lute
