The link has been copied https://www.konserthuset.se/en/programme/calendar/concert/2019/mozarts-jupiter-symphony/Italian conductor, pianist and early music expert Luca Guglielmi debuts with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. In addition, four musicians from the orchestra will present solos. A sinfonia concertante is a cross between a symphony and an instrumental concerto with several soloists. One of the finest examples of a sinfonia concertante is Haydn’s for oboe, bassoon, violin and cello.
The concert begins with the overture to Mozart’s opera Idomeneo, in which the action plays out on Crete following the Trojan War. After the introductory burst, a storm swells up on the ocean and we can genuinely hear the crash of waves in the violins’ rolling runs.
During a hectic summer three years before his death, Mozart composed his final three symphonies. The forty-first symphony, his most grandiose, was also his last. The finale is one of Mozart’s biggest feats. Beginning in the simple theme with only four notes, we are pulled into an unparalleled listening adventure filled with captivating melodies and counterpoint finesses. An utterly magnificent masterpiece. The symphony is entitled Jupiter after the god from Roman mythology.
Jupiter also shows up in German-Swedish composer Joseph Martin Kraus’ opera Proserpin, but here as a mediator in a drama of love and morals. Kraus moved to Stockholm in 1778 and is often called the Mozart of Sweden. Both were born the same year and it is also possible that they met in Vienna where they were both active simultaneously for a period of time; they were also both Freemasons.

The link has been copied https://www.konserthuset.se/en/programme/calendar/concert/2020/tchaikovsky-piano-concerto/Pianist Beatrice Rana is a young Italian musician who is now ascending the international music scene, much to the delight of audiences and critics. She debuted with an orchestra at the young age of nine and has already become a regular soloist of the major stages in Vienna and Berlin, Wigmore Hall in London, Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and Lincoln Center in New York.
Now Rana and the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra will unite under the baton of Sakari Oramo in a programme which the orchestra will begin with a symphonic poem by Sibelius from 1892. This is a tale with no specific narrative, but with an atmosphere like “the expression of a state of mind,” as he himself once said. Next we will hear a symphony which ultimately proved to be Anders Eliasson’s last, a powerful piece whose three movements run into one another without pause: rolling and swaying, charged and lyrical, one after the next.
The melancholy atmosphere left behind by Eliasson’s symphony will shift after the intermission with Tchaikovsky’s famous Piano Concerto No. 1. With grand gestures, it contains a masterful piano section, colourful orchestral playing and captivating melodies with folkloric elements.

The link has been copied https://www.konserthuset.se/en/programme/calendar/concert/2020/franz-welser-möst-conducts/In 2018, conductor Franz Welser-Möst received the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra’s Eric Ericson Honorary Chair, and beginning in autumn 2020 he will lead the orchestra for two weeks each season. The collaboration is based on the excellent relationship that arose between the orchestra and conductor following their first concerts together, and which has deepened throughout the years.
Richard Strauss composed several pieces that described phenomena or environments that were beyond music. He called them tone poems. Aus Italien is one of the first and he referred to it as a symphonic fantasy. On a trip to the countryside, he was utterly overcome, which is evidenced in the music as we take a tour of the rural scenery, visit Roman ruins, behold the ocean from the shore of Sorrento and are fascinated by Neapolitan public life.
Composer, clarinettist and conductor Jörg Widmann often uses elements of older classical music in his imaginative compositions. He is one of Germany’s most acclaimed names in music and was tasked with composing a large oratorio for the opening of the Elbphilharmonie concert hall in Hamburg in 2017. The Babylon Suite is a version for large orchestra with music from his opera Babylon, which was a huge success at the Bavarian State Opera in 2012.

The link has been copied https://www.konserthuset.se/en/programme/calendar/concert/2020/lvb250--beethovens-first/Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1 will be performed at this concert beside Ethel Smyth’s large-scale Serenade. Like Beethoven she had a defiant personality, and she staked claim to her life as a composer through his piano sonatas.
The world premiere of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 1 was on the evening of 2 April 1800 at the Burgtheater in Vienna. The composer was 29 years old and already famous for his music, which he composed with irrepressible willpower and potent personal integrity. He simultaneously gave a nod to his teacher and predecessor Haydn: the symphony begins with a slow section that elegantly leads into the quick-paced main section, a form which Haydn used in many of his symphonies.
The symphony is idyllic, nearly rural at times, but also dramatically powerful with whirling strings and a majestic wind section.
When English composer Ethel Smyth (1858–1944) began to learn Beethoven’s piano sonatas, it was like “walking on my own legs into a brand new world.” They coloured her for life. At the conservatory in Leipzig, she later met Dvorák, Tchaikovsky and Grieg, as well as Clara Schumann and Johannes Brahms. Her Serenade for orchestra is as large-scale as a symphony. Beethoven was an incredibly strong source of inspiration, and elements of Brahms can also be found here.
Chief conductor Sakari Oramo leads the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra at this first concert presenting all of Beethoven’s symphonies during the grand Beethoven anniversary.

The link has been copied https://www.konserthuset.se/en/programme/calendar/concert/2020/lvb250--beethovens-fifth/Two incredible symphonies strengthen one another at this concert: Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5 and Dora Pejacevic’s grandiose Symphony in F-Sharp Minor.
Beethoven’s fifth symphony may be the most played classical piece in the world. It is a musician’s symphony, a piece about which it is impossible to be neutral. In his book on Beethoven, former Konserthuset director Åke Holmquist wrote that the symphony is “scaled down and incredibly concentrated, with violent contrasts, easy to follow, and – if one so wishes – with ‘action’: from darkness to light, from struggle to triumph. In addition, the Fifth is thought, like no other piece, to portray the myth of Beethoven: alone against destiny, the battling titan, who can only prevail through conflict.”
Composer Dora Pejacevic (1885–1923) was among, albeit reluctantly, the Croatian nobility around the turn of the last century and was largely self-taught as a composer. She died at just 37 years old due to complications from the delivery of her first child, but she left behind over one hundred pieces including a piano concerto, songs, string quartets, piano pieces – and this unparalleled symphony imbued with traces of late romanticism.
The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra plays under the baton of chief conductor Sakari Oramo.

The link has been copied https://www.konserthuset.se/en/programme/calendar/concert/2020/nicola-benedetti-plays-prokofiev/With incredible charisma on stage and unparalleled musicality, Scottish violinist Nicola Benedetti has positioned herself as one of the most prominent soloists of classical music. Here, she will tackle Prokofiev’s elegantly lyrical and endlessly surprising second violin concerto.
Victoria Borisova-Ollas’ Open Ground for symphony orchestra is inspired by Salman Rushdie’s novel The Ground Beneath Her Feet. How stable is the ground beneath our feet, really? Who would have ever dared to imagine what it feels like when it suddenly starts to rock? Borisova-Ollas poses these questions in this music.
With his second symphony, Sibelius lifted his gaze from the refined fairytale world of the national epic, the Kalevala, and focused instead on Europe and his contemporary era. It was composed in a time when Finland was fighting for its independence from Russia and has been interpreted as a patriotic tone poem in the struggle for Finnish identity, which was probably not at all the case. Sibelius did not want to politicize his music. Either way, this magnificent symphony overflows with beautiful melodies and shifts between tranquillity and outbursts, intimacy and passion. Chief conductor Sakari Oramo leads the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra.

The link has been copied https://www.konserthuset.se/en/programme/calendar/concert/2020/bruckners-eighth/Anton Bruckner’s voluminous and sonically sumptuous symphonies never cease to amaze. The balance between the overarching musical architecture and the smaller details is always exquisitely even. The Eighth Symphony became Bruckner’s last complete symphony and is a summation of all of his compositional achievements. After completing the work on the magnificent finale, Bruckner concluded: “This is the most significant orchestral movement I have composed in my entire life.”
The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra will be led by German conductor Christoph Eschenbach. He has guest performed at Konserthuset and with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra on many occasions before, and debuted with the orchestra in 1974 as the piano soloist in Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4. For the past ten years, he has been invited to return at regular intervals, especially as one of the world-leading conductors of the Mahler and Bruckner repertoires.
Christoph Eschenbach has previously served as chief conductor for a host of the world’s foremost orchestras and as of this season, he is chief conductor of the Konzerthausorchester Berlin.

The link has been copied https://www.konserthuset.se/en/programme/calendar/concert/2020/mozart--strauss/The charismatic conductor Manfred Honeck has had a unique career. For over ten years, he has been chief conductor of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and previously served as head of the Leipzig Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra. He is also a regular and very popular guest conductor of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra.
Here, Honeck will lead the orchestra in Mozart’s Symphony No. 39, the first of his final three symphonies composed in the summer of 1788. It is also one of just three of his symphonies to begin with a slow and magnificent introduction before the first movement’s powerful allegro begins. The symphony is a brilliant creation by the master Mozart, nuanced and elegant, yet also full of surprising turns and drama.
Richard Strauss wanted to compose something in the same heroic style as Beethoven’s Eroica. He did precisely that in Ein Heldenleben – A Hero’s Life. Through the music, we follow Strauss’ hero through feats, out on the battlefield, together with his life companion and to the inevitable conclusion. This music can be considered a depiction of a heroic destiny in general, but the hero in this musical narrative is undoubtedly Richard Strauss himself.
