Lux Natalis

It has been a steadfast tradition for over 25 years: in December, the Vlaams Radiokoor invites everyone to come together, pause the frantic pace of the holiday season, and find a moment of reflection through both well-known and hidden choral gems. Conductor Peter Dijkstra has curated a refined and surprising programme that combines intimate, minimalist works with age-old Christmas classics.
