Mozart’s Don Giovanni (Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra)
1
Peter Mattei, Malin Byström, Andrew Staples and other world-famous soloists join the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and members of the Swedish Radio Choir in Berwaldhallen in this unique staging of Mozart’s famous opera. Don Giovanni is a beloved staple of the operatic repertoire that has inspired generations of composers, writers and philosophers. The opera’s light-hearted elements are tempered by sorrow, drama and – in the unforgettable finale – supernatural horror.
Pelléas et Mélisande - Genève
1
Lost in a forest, a prince meets a mysterious woman and takes her home to a dark castle haunted by repressed longings. There she grows fonder of her new husband's half-brother, sparking a fatal love triangle between the three of them. In a perfect synergy of the arts, choreographers Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Damien Jalet, together with the legendary performance artist Marina Abramovic, stage Pelléas et Mélisande as a cosmic dream. Like Debussy through his impressionistic music, the performers and creators of this production dispense with any illustration and instead bring out the hidden emotions of the characters.

Mahler 8.

Oct 19, 2024
Mahler's 8th is one of the greatest orchestral and choral works in the classical repertoire and is rarely performed. The work has been called the 'Symphony of a Thousand', and requires eight soloists and several choirs, in addition to the orchestra. Edward Gardner's last concert in the role of Chief Conductor of the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra was during the Bergen International Festival, with the monumental Mahler's 8th Symphony in E-flat major on the programme. The concert won the Critics' Prize for Music 2023–2024, and what has been described as a "heavenly finale" has been captured for the big screen. 'Try to imagine the whole universe beginning to ring and resound. There are no longer human voices, but planets and suns revolving.' the composer said of his eighth symphony. When the work was premiered in 1910, with Mahler conducting, it broke all the rules and boundaries of what symphonies could and should be.
