The DR Vocal Ensemble performed Robert Saxton’s Hymn to Saint Michael in concerts at Copenhagen Cathedral and Aarhus Cathedral on 7th and 9th February. Marcus Creed, the concert's conductor, was a contemporary of Robert Saxton at Cambridge University. Saxton wrote the piece as a parting gift to DR Vokalensemblet's artistic director, Michael Emery, when, in 2015, he left the equivalent position with the British radio choir, the BBC Singers. The Aarhus performance will be live-streamed on DR P2 at 1830 (UK time) today (11th February) and will be available for 30 days.
