A world-renowned orchestra

The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra is very much present in today’s music life.
The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra was founded in 1902 and Konserthuset Stockholm has been its home since 1926. The orchestra gives around 100 concerts annually and participates in the festivities associated with the Nobel Prize Award Ceremony.
Noted for its ambitious programming, composer festivals with contemporary music and pioneering work on a more gender balanced repertoire, the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra is very much present in today’s music life. It has made itself an international name through extensive touring. The German newspaper Die Welt once concluded that the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic is “one of the world’s best orchestras”.
Regular guest conductors include notable names such as Riccardo Muti, Andris Nelsons, Herbert Blomstedt, Nathalie Stutzmann, Gianandrea Noseda and Conductor Laureate Alan Gilbert. The acclaimed conductor Franz Welser-Möst was awarded the new title Eric Ericson Honorary Chair in 2018, and works with the orchestra on a regular basis.
Finnish Sakari Oramo was Chief Conductor and Artistic Director of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic from 2008 to 2021. He concluded his tenure with a grand Sibelius festival in May 2021 (still online on Konserthuset Play), and was then also named Conductor Laureate.
The orchestra has also received considerable attention for several recordings; among them Carl Nielsen’s symphonies with Sakari Oramo which were critically acclaimed internationally; the recordings of Symphonies Nos. 1 and 3 received a BBC Music Magazine Award 2016. The CD Sirens, with music by Anders Hillborg, won a 2016 Swedish Grammy Award, and the CD Distant Light, with the world-renowned American soprano Renée Fleming, attracted much attention.
Konserthuset Play is the orchestra’s online platform. Launched in 2013 it offers a large selection of filmed performances with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, available for free streaming anywhere in the world.
”The Konserthuset Play platform offers a digital showcase of the orchestra’s recent outings at home, under both its [then] chief conductor, Sakari Oramo, and others, from Karina Canellakis to Herbert Blomstedt. For an invigorating reminder of what a truly world-class band this is, try Brahms’s Second Symphony conducted by Pablo Heras-Casado. It’s a comparatively clean-shaven reading of the piece – stylish rather than high-Romantic – in which the lower strings are velvety, woodwind solos beguile and the brass provide irresistibly high-shine climaxes.” Flora Willson/The Guardian (20 April 2020)

At this concert, she performs the solo in Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy’s Violin Concerto in E-minor, one of classical music’s priceless masterpieces. This music is characterised by outstandingly beautiful melodies, which should suit a violinist acclaimed for her warm and expressive tone.
First, we hear British composer Ruth Gipps’ (1921–1999) work Ambarvalia. Gipps was also an oboist, pianist and conductor. As a world-class piano soloist, she performed the world premieres of piano concertos by Arthur Bliss and Alexander Glazunov, among others. Ambarvalia is one of Ruth Gipps’ later works (1988); it is an elegant and warm piece for a small orchestra, in which inspiration can be detected from Elgar, for example.
Aleksandr Borodin’s Symphony No. 2 is one of his best-known works. Borodin belonged to the Russian group of composers known as “The Five”, who were active in Saint Petersburg from the early 1860s. The music of this so-called New Russian School had a nationalistic and romantic style, which later influenced Stravinsky, Prokofiev and Shostakovich, for example. With Borodin, we note elegant and exciting orchestration in this lyrical, colourful music.
Polish conductor Joanna Natalia Slusarczyk makes her debut here with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. She recently won a prize at the La Maestra competition in Paris. She has conducted numerous Polish orchestras, and has also been active in Germany, Italy and England. In Poland, she founded and leads both a chamber orchestra and a youth orchestra.

Perhaps one can imagine Spanish sun and flamenco steps in the Concierto de Aranjuez for guitar and orchestra – Rodrigo’s best-known work. The music was inspired by the gardens at the royal palace in Aranjuez, just south of Madrid. Here, Joaquín Rodrigo has captured “the scents of magnolias, the song of birds and the gushing fountains”. The acclaimed and internationally recognised Swedish guitarist Jacob Kellermann is the soloist. He recently released a recording (BIS) of Concierto de Aranjuez, together with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, led by Christian Karlsen.
After intermission, we hear a newly composed piece by one of our top orchestral composers: Britta Byström. A Drama in the Air is inspired by Jules Verne’s novel about a dramatic hot air balloon journey. Britta Byström was featured at Konserthuset’s Composer Weekend in 2010.
We also hear Igor Stravinsky’s elegant The Firebird, the first of the three major ballets composed for Diaghilev’s Russian ballet in Paris. It is based on the Russian folktale about Prince Ivan, who gets lost in an enchanted garden. A large apple tree grows there, and each night, the majestic Firebird visits the garden to eat the golden apples that bestow eternal youth, beauty and happiness.
The young Swedish conductor Anton Holmer makes his debut here with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. He studied orchestral conducting at the Staatliche Hochschule für Musik and has a background as an organist, which he studied in Sweden, Germany and France.

The performance simultaneously marks the 10-year anniversary of the collaboration between El Sistema Södertälje and the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, which both look forward to a continued collaboration. In autumn 2012, El Sistema Södertälje began working with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. The orchestra’s musicians serve as role models and mentors to the students, and many close friendships have formed between the students and musicians over the years.
To meet public demand, an additional performance will be presented of the dream play Romeo and Juliet. It will be held at Södertälje Stadsscen. Many attendees were prevented from attending the world premiere at Konserthuset Stockholm in October 2021, due to restrictions.

In 2022, Benjamin Ingrosso performs three concerts, the last of which is at Konserthuset. “It’s a dream to make music with an orchestra like the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. I want to offer something extra, in which my own music becomes ‘classic’ and reminiscent of great pieces that have inspired me throughout my life.”
Despite the pandemic, Benjamin Ingrosso has been among the most visible artists in the past two years. There have been countless televised performances, including the spectacular ‘The Allsång Stage is Yours’ at Skansen, as well as an acclaimed performance on the Swedish show ‘So Much Better’. But live concerts, his true strength as an artist, were absent, of course.
On three carefully selected occasions, Benjamin Ingrosso performs live in 2022: a club performance at Fållan in the Slakthusområdet area of Stockholm on 8 April; a festival performance at Lollapalooza in Stockholm on 2 July; and this concert with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, in which the large orchestra gives his songs a new shape.

It is a mighty hymn to nature, longing, wine and love’s delights. The musicians are led by the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra’s chief conductor designate, the award-winning American Ryan Bancroft. “A dancing conductor bodes well for the musicians,” wrote newspaper SvD after the 2021 Nobel Prize Concert.
Carl Orff was born in the Bavarian city of Munich and described Carmina Burana as a dramatic cantata subtitled “secular songs for singers and choruses to be sung together with instruments and magic images.” The lyrics were found in the early nineteenth century in Benedictine monastery of Benediktbeuern in Bavaria and were named accordingly – Carmina Burana, Songs of Beuren. Most were written in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and they include satire, parody, love songs, lyrics about nature, songs of spring, and dedicated religiosity.
We also hear music by Austrian Franz Schreker, one of the most refined sound artists of the early twentieth century. His entire life, he was fascinated by sound and tones. Vorspiel zu einem Drama – prelude to a drama – is a reworking of the introduction to his opera Die Gezeichneten, The Branded, an expressionist and powerful psychological drama.
The concert begins with Swedish Lisa Streich, who is known for her beautiful and imaginative orchestral works. As we note in her Segel (Sail), she also gladly uses many as well as unusual percussion instruments – including an egg slicer!
