Lise returns to the concert stage on 5 April when she joins the Danish National Symphony Orchestra in Copenhagen. Lise performs arias from operas including Verdi’s Otello and Un ballo in maschera as well as Wagner’s Tannhäuser and Wesendonck Lieder.
Later in the month, Lise joins the Copenhagen Philharmonic at the Royal Danish Conservatory’s concert hall on 26 April. She sings Richard Strauss’ posthumously published Four Last Songs, which she also performed in March with the Oslo Philharmonic.
Lise joins the Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra and the BBC Singers in Copenhagen on 11 February to sing Verdi Requiem. Lise is joined for the performance by fellow soloists Olesya Petrova, Insung Sim and Giorgio Berrugi and conductor Fabio Luisi.
Lise performed Verdi Requiem in November for her debut with the Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Edward Gardner at the Royal Festival Hall:
“Lise Davidsen, fearless and outgoing is also refined and intimate. […] How could even the most heartless dictator resist Lise Davidsen’s indomitable ‘Libera me’? She put everything into it – bright and intense – and always at the right moment she softened her tone and dynamic.”
