Family Concert: THE LEGEND OF THE CHRISTMAS ROSE

How the Göinge forest once transformed into a blooming paradise every Christmas... - perhaps the most beautiful of all legends by Selma Lagerlöf, creator of Nils Holgersson and Nobel Prize laureate! Music improvised in the spirit of old Swedish folk music (violin, double bass, accordion, clarinet, recorder) - a genuine, perhaps final?, deeply moving Christmas tale... Music: Selma-Lagerlöf-Combo. Narrator: Andreas Peer Kähler.

Ages 8 and up - 70 minutes

Note: This programme is intended specifically for older children (and adults), hence the late start time and the age recommendation "8 and up". Families with younger children may prefer the alternative show "Weihnachten mit Astrid Lindgren".
