On All Saints' Day, Filharmonisk Kor Fyn brings a candlelit evening of reflective, deeply felt choral music to Ansgars Kirke in Odense. The programme centres on Gabriel Fauré's Requiem, joined by Maurice Duruflé's Quatre Motets, Francis Poulenc's Priez pour Paix and an organ solo.
The choir, made up of around 50 amateur singers, is conducted by Kasper Borchersen, with Tina Christiansen, the church's organist, at the organ, and soloists Christine Bach Tofft (soprano) and Lauritz Jakob Thomsen (baritone). Thomsen also sings Duruflé's motets in Copenhagen at Helligaandskirken on 14 November, and Christiansen performs at Odense Domkirke on 28 November.
