Carl Christian Bringgaard

About

Carl-Christian Bringgaard is a Danish singer and speaker based in Sorø, known for his folk song evenings rooted in the Danish højskole tradition. He guides audiences through the stories behind the songs and their poets - from Jeppe Åkjær to Kaj Munk - singing them together with the crowd, usually accompanied by pianist Marianne Reiche. He also co-founded Herreværelset i Sorø, a community initiative that grew from a local gathering into a nationally recognised concept.
