The Main Hall seating planWe unfortunately have to announce that the concerts Joe Hisaishi Symphonic Concert on June 2 & 3, 2023 are cancelled.
The concerts were originally supposed to take place in June 2020, but were moved due to the pandemic first to August 2021 and then to the current date of June 2023. During this period our original contracting party has gone bankrupt, the company that took over the rights has changed the concept to an arena performance that unfortunately cannot be performed in the Concert Hall. We have been trying to find a solution for a long time, but it has not been possible. We deeply feel sorry for this, as we know that the concerts were highly anticipated and that many customers followed through several date changes.
Tickets are refunded by the box office. Affected customers are contacted with more detailed information on how this is done.

At last! Experience the magical music of Studio Ghibli films live at Konserthuset Stockholm, together with a selection of clips on the screen.
This concert is a tribute to the successful and close collaboration between two legendary artists: the composer Joe Hisaishi and the director Hayao Miyazaki. This magical concert experience will reach Stockholm in June – and Joe Hisaishi himself will participate on stage as both conductor and piano soloist.
Joe Hisaishi and Hayao Miyazaki has created unique cinematography together for over 30 years. Their artistic collaboration has reached world-fame through the film from the Japanese animation production house Studio Ghibli.
My Neighbor Totoro, Kiki’s Delivery Service, Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Howl’s Moving Castle… the list of animated masterpieces is long, and the Studio Ghibli films are beloved by audiences all over the world. Joe Hisaishi’s moving and personal music makes a powerful contribution to the character of the movies. Or, in the words of legendary Ghibli producer Toshio Suzuki: “Joe Hisaishi is the only match for Miyazaki’s anime.”
The concert will include music from about ten of the most popular Ghibli movies. Under the leadership of Maestro Hisaishi, the music will be performed by the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, Katarina choirs and a number of vocal soloists, while sequences from the movies are projected onto a screen.
This lavish production has been a hit in Tokyo, New York, Los Angeles and Melbourne, Australia. In Europe, it has been presented in Paris, Lyon, Brussels and Prague. The concerts at Konserthuset Stockholm will thus be the Scandinavian premiere of the Joe Hisaishi Symphonic Concert – a unique opportunity for all Ghibli fans.
Age-limit from 6 years.

Closing concert with this season's academy musicians.
The Grünewald Hall has capacity for up to 460 people, spread across the stalls and gallery. Both floors can be accessed by lift and the stairs. The hall has two wheelchair places.
Since 2016, the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra (RSPO) offers one year of training on site at Konserthuset Stockholm. The RSPO Orchestra Academy aims to give participating musicians heightened knowledge and understanding of the profession by giving them the possibility to work with – and alongside – one of Europe’s leading symphony orchestras.
The young musicians receive individual tuition on their instrument by tutors that are predominantly leaders and principals of the orchestra. In addition, extensive chamber music playing is a vital part of the course. In this case, it’s the final consert with the students of the season 2022/23.
Samuel Barber’s Summer Music is a wind quintet with some bluesy ingredients. This is followed by Tchaikovsky’s string sextet Souvenir de Florence. Its title, Memory from Florence, indicates where he began composing it. Finally wind players and strings are gathered together to perform Swedish composer Johannes Pollak’s Elegy, a piece premiered by the RSPO Orchestra Academy of 2020, now returning in a version adapted for this year’s academists.
