About the concert

Who are the people who carry us through life? At this Phil Awake we meet the author Dean Butt, who reads from the critically acclaimed novel Vi er rigtige engle (We Are Real Angels) - a story about the angels who were present in the midst of his own upbringing. The morning's music moves between the earthly and the sublime, as the up-and-coming violinist Anna Agafia Egholm visits Phil Awake with, among other things, a foretaste of her forthcoming violin concerto To the Memory of an Angel by Alban Berg. Phil Awake - what is it? Some mornings just have to be got through. And then there are those that give energy for the rest of the day. That is Phil Awake - your new musical wake-up call. Enjoy a sensory break with coffee, croissant and live music from some of the country's best musicians. Lean back, slow down and move on with new energy - uplifted, enriched and awake. It is Copenhagen Phil's take on the best start to the day, where on selected days from 8-9 you get a fresh morning contribution delivered by interesting speakers and musicians from the orchestra. Keep an eye on the website for more Phil Awakes.
