Dinner & Concert: Divertimento Vocale Berlin
Berlin, French Cathedral — Main Hall
About the Event
This must be what it sounds like when angels sing. The Italian word “divertimento” is most beautifully translated as “delight for the soul.” Divertimento Vocale Berlin immediately captivates with its vocally balanced sound. This young, eight‐member vocal ensemble performs Christmas carols in a way rarely heard today, thereby reviving the nearly forgotten tradition of vocal art.
This concert is highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience these angelic voices live. The program features festive Christmas songs performed by Veronika Würfel & Antonia Biemer (soprano), Anja Trekel & Cäcilia Vormstein (alto), Patrick Orlich & Laurens Heintze (tenor), Christoph Biemer (bass), and Ingo Bußmann (bass). A moment meant for inner reflection and bringing the year to a close.

French Cathedral
The French Church (Französischer Dom) is one of the three key buildings at the Gendarmenmarkt, the most beautiful square in Berlin. The church was built as a place of worship for the Huguenots, followers of the Protestant Reformed Church of France, who were persecuted in their own country and found asylum in Berlin in the reign of Frederick the Great. The French Cathedral stands opposite the German Church (or Neue Kirche), their identical domes and styles forming a stunning architectural ensemble. Unusually, in this location, 'Dom' refers not to a German 'cathedral', but to the French 'dome'. The building houses the Huguenot museum, a restaurant and a viewing platform that offers a gorgeous view of Mitte district of Berlin.
