Rhapsody in Motion
March 3, 2026 - 19:00
In the concert Rhapsody in Motion, mythology and contemporary expression alternate in an energetic sequence. Esbjerg Ensemble explores nature and creative tension in a programme that brings together works by George Enescu, Carl Nielsen, Dmitri Shostakovich, Herman David Koppel, and Lil Lacy. We will navigate between fragility and intensity through modern reinterpretations of musical heritage, a space of contrast and rediscovery. An evening that does not aim to explain, but to ignite perception.
