The orchestra is led by Swiss-Austrian Elena Schwartz and the highly acclaimed Jacob Kellerman is the guitar soloist. The guitar concerto Kellermann tackles is certainly not conventional. Augenlider, Eyelids, is composed for arranged guitar and orchestra, and this music is a low-key, whispering and sparsely snapping. It includes a hairclip, an egg slicer and water.
Lisa Streich’s imagination revolves around visual and physical elements. When she composed Mantel (Cloak) for two percussionists and strings, she imagined the ensemble like a body: the strings as the head, the percussionists as the skeleton. The piece Himmel (Heaven) is like a musical painting of the changing skies overhead. She paints a world with light brush strokes, in which tones and sounds add colour.
In Händeküssen (Hand Kisses), Streich was inspired by a passage in a conversation book by Beethoven, who was deaf. “Kissing a hand is not a good thing,” he wrote. The music is a dreamt dance, and it is offered with kisses on the hand. But how does dancing look if one is deaf? The orchestra is split in two, representing the right and left foot, while the listener is inside the deaf ear canal.
Lisa Streich’s original scores are like maps of sound. The music is sometimes reminiscent of the aural worlds of nature or the city, and the composition emerges as a “sound conductor”. She sees this as sculpting with an orchestra or ensemble, and a sort of choreography emerges from the sound, inviting not only listeners, but viewers as well. She has gained more and more international attention.

At this concert, those rockets are fired off by acclaimed British pianist Isata Kanneh-Mason.
Felix Mendelssohn was only seventeen years old when he composed his wonderfully bright and quick-paced overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream. It is nevertheless considered one of his first mature masterpieces. The action in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream revolves around masculinity, femininity, love and fertility. And even if Felix’ own experiences in the area were probably relatively limited, he conveys in this music the emotional register that Shakespeare presents in his beloved comedy.
The concert concludes with the Confession of Isobel Gowdie by Scottish composer James MacMillan (born 1959). The music revolves around Isobel Gowdie, who confessed to witchcraft in 1662. The work was an enormous success at its world premiere at a Proms concert in 1990.
The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra is led by award-winning American conductor Ryan Bancroft, who is chief conductor of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra as of this season.

Sibelius, himself a violinist, may have composed the concerto he would have wanted to play himself – even if it was at a technical level that far exceeded his own – in a farewell to his youthful dream of a career as a violin virtuoso. With the unparalleled Dutch violinist Janine Jansen, we can await a captivating, intense and emotional adventure.
Before his departure to the “new world”, America, Antonín Dvorák composed his life-affirming Eighth Symphony. As ever with Sibelius, this music is naturalistic and filled with roaring energy. We hear plenty of Bohemian folk melodies and dancing movement here. Do we also hear a forest filled with birdsong, and nostalgic longing for home?
The concert opens with music by Swedish Andrea Tarrodi. Camelopardalis is the Latin name for the giraffe constellation. In the middle of Tarrodi’s piece, the giraffe’s theme is presented by the bassoon.
It is our great delight to welcome the return of Austrian conductor Manfred Honeck to the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. In recent years, he has established a close relationship with the orchestra and last conducted the Nobel Prize Concert in 2022. Honeck is chief conductor of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, and has been familiar to many listeners in Sweden over the years as chief conductor of the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra.
