Divertimento Vocale Berlin: Christmas à cappella
Berlin, French Cathedral — Main Hall
About the Event
This is what angels must sound like when they sing. The Italian word divertimento means “delight” or “amusement.” Divertimento Vocale Berlin immediately captivates listeners with its vocally balanced sound. The young eight‐member vocal ensemble performs Christmas carols as they are rarely heard, reviving the almost forgotten tradition of vocal art.
If you would like to hear these angelic voices live, this concert is highly recommended. Festive Christmas songs will be sung by Veronika Würfel & Antonia Biemer (soprano), Anja Trekel & Cäcilia Vormstein (alto), Patrick Orlich & Laurens Heintze (tenor), Christoph Biemer (bass) & Lukas Schulze (bass). A moment dedicated to inner reflection and the end of the year.

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.
