Movements – Nobel Prize Concert 2018!

On Saturday December 8, my piece Movements will be played by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at the Nobel Prize Concert 2018, Stockholm Concert Hall.
Conductor: Karina Canellakis

Link to event

Link to score available at Gehrmans Music Publishing Company

Swedish Television will broadcast the concert on December 8 at 8pm.

This piece was first performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in 2017 as a commission for the Ceremonial opening of the Swedish Parliament.

City Life – World premiere

On Sunday November 11 my new piece for orchestra will have it´s world premiere at Musikaliska, Nybrokajen 11, Stockholm at 6 pm. Conductor: Hugo Ticciati. Performing orchestra: O/Modernt plus members of Swedish Wind Orchestra.

The piece was commissioned to commemorate the 125th anniversary of  Gehrmans Music Publishing House with support from Inge and Einar Rosenborg´s Foundation for Swedish Music.

The piece is a “companion piece” to Swedish composer Lars-Erik Larsson´s Pastorale Suite , capturing the antithesis – the metropolitan pulse – some eighty years later. This reflection of contemporary urban life mirrors the many-faceted movements throughout a day, from dawn to dusk.
