Alberte Winding & Danmarks Underholdningsorkester

Description

In spring 2027 audiences can experience Alberte Winding in a new concert format, when she goes on tour together with Danmarks Underholdningsorkester. Her songs unfold in symphonic settings, where both the familiar classics and newer works come to life anew. For Alberte Winding, the idea of working with a large orchestra has long been smouldering: “I have thought for many years that it could be quite fantastic to hear my songs with strings and wind instruments. So it feels a bit as if something I have been dreaming about for a long time is finally happening now. The old songs get a new depth, and the new ones have in a way been conceived in that direction all along,” she says. For more than four decades Alberte Winding has been a regular part of Danes' lives. From the early years in children's TV to an extensive career as a songwriter and musician. Her songs move effortlessly between the simple and the reflective, and often revolve around relationships, everyday life and the big emotions that hide just beneath the surface. At Danmarks Underholdningsorkester the enthusiasm for the collaboration is clear: “Alberte Winding is one of those artists whose songs already hold a special poetry and closeness that many Danes have a personal relationship with. She has an ability to write herself into our lives across generations, and it is precisely that space we look forward to stepping into together with her and the audience,” says John Frandsen, director of Danmarks Underholdningsorkester. The concerts will take the audience through the whole of Alberte's catalogue. From children's songs to pop classics and more recent collaborations. A repertoire that reflects a life lived in music, and that reaches several generations at once. Songs such as Lyse nætter will naturally find their way into the concert and are among those Alberte is most looking forward to unfolding in the orchestra's setting: “That song has been allowed to mean something to so many people. I look forward to unfolding it even more with the orchestra. It feels as if it deserves it,” says Alberte. For Alberte Winding the concerts are ultimately about meeting the audience. The moment when the songs find their place: “It is incomplete until it meets its audience,” she says. And it is precisely in the concert hall that what she herself seeks in music arises. A shared space where both memories and new experiences are allowed to exist side by side: “I hope the audience leaves the hall with a feeling of light and warmth. That the music is allowed to speak a little more than I do,” says Alberte Winding.
