Letter-writing concert 2024
Join us for a letter-writing concert in the Old Reading Room in The Black Diamond! Turn off the phone, turn on the senses and indulge in the quiet, confidential space of letter-writing.
There are not many spaces left in our everyday life that invite focus and contemplation; a place where you can collect your thoughts and get them down on paper. When darkness descends over Copenhagen, the Royal Danish Library invites you to a letter-writing concert, where we provide a warm, calm atmosphere under the glow of the green lamps in our beautiful, historic Old Reading Room.
The talented musician Mark Solborg will create a beautiful soundscape as a setting for your writing, while, with a glass of wine in one hand and pen in the other, you can capture the moment and share it with someone else to the tune of live music.
When the thoughts have been settled and the letter has been written, the Royal Danish Library sends it for you.
