The Main Hall currently has capacity for 1,770 people, spread across the stalls, first and second balconies and choir balcony. Each floor can be accessed by lift or the stairs. Due to the location of pillars, a number of seats have a fully or partially restricted view. These are indicated in the booking system. The hall has six wheelchair places.
Sing along to Christmas classics with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra! It's time to warm up and exercise those vocal cords, and get ready for the perfect prelude to the holiday celebrations. Of course, it's perfectly fine to just listen as well, and let yourself be enveloped by the orchestra and voices that fill every corner of the Main Hall.
Leading the sing-along is Emelie Power, organist and choir conductor at Katarina Parish in Stockholm. She has previously led sing-alongs with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra at the annual Philharmonic Day. The conductor is Sofia Winiarski, who recently completed her conducting degree at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm and has already gained significant attention.

Experience Johann Sebastian Bach's magnificent Christmas Oratorio! To the thunder of timpani and jubilant trumpets, it is proclaimed in the magnificent opening that Jesus is born.
It's easy to be misled by the title Christmas Oratorio, as if it were a single work intended to be performed at one occasion, Christmas Eve. That's far from the case. In fact, the Christmas Oratorio consists of six different parts, intended to be performed at as many occasions around Christmas. Today, as in this concert, it's customary to perform the first three parts, which were first performed together at a concert in Leipzig, in the days around Christmas 1735.
Delving into Bach's music is to venture into an unfathomable and fascinating musical universe. We constantly discover new things, and it never ends. Spend a few hours with Bach's Christmas Oratorio. It's a magnificent experience.
The Italian baroque specialist and conductor Luca Guglielmi leads the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Eric Ericson's Chamber Choir, and the four soloists. Eric Ericson's Chamber Choir, formed in 1945, ranks among the top international professional ensembles. Since 2003, the choir has had a close collaboration with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
