Mellem Allehelgen og Advent præsenterer Dopplers programmet “Mellem Lys og Skygge”.
Her stiller vi spørgsmålene:
Hvad er det, der lever i skyggen, i os selv, i vores medmennesker og i samfundet omkring os?
Og hvilke skygger kaster vi selv?
I et blandet program af egne sange og kendte kompositioner udforsker vi spændingsfeltet
“Mellem Lys og Skygge” afspejlet i fortid og nutid.
Med plads til at mindes, til at undres, til at græmmes og med plads til at søge lyset.

a Christmas EP project. Since we are creating and composing the music ourselves, it doesn't feel so christmas'sy.
We will inform as much as we can once we come closer to the recording sessions. And of course again, when the sweet Christmas time arrives
