Edvard Grieg - Peer Gynt Suite no 1
Djuro Zivkovic - Double concerto for cello, piano and orchestra (premiere)
-PAUS
Andrea Tarrodi - Birds of Paradise for string orchestra
Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy - Symphony No. 4 'The Italian'
This year we are proud to be part of the EU project Songs of Travel, which explores themes of migration and travel through music, research and interactive experiences. Together with three other festivals and a game developer, we have commissioned five new musical works and also created a mobile game that follows the lives and journeys of five migrants across Europe. Travel and impressions from other places and contexts are the common thread that binds the festival's program. The opening concert will feature the premiere of one of the five works, Djuro Zivkovic's Double Concerto for cello, piano and orchestra.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Edvard Grieg' s beloved Peer Gynt Suite is based on Henrik Ibsen's dramatic tale of the adventurous Peer Gynt who travels the world but loses himself in his lies and dreams. Searching for love, wealth and meaning, he finally realizes that he has neglected the only thing that matters: the faithful Solveig waiting for him at home.
Djuro Zivkovic's Concerto Terrae, double concerto for cello, piano and orchestra is one of the works commissioned for Songs of Travel. Serbian-Swedish Zivkovic has won several international prizes and awards for his original and expressive music, including the Grawemeyer Award, often likened to the Nobel Prize of art music.
"In the double concert, I want to evoke a sense of wonder and awe, evoking the paradoxical nature of our planet - a fragile yet resilient sphere suspended in the vastness of space. Themusic will evoke a sense of the sacred and invite the listener to contemplate their place in the grand design of the universe." - Djuro Zivkovic
When Andrea Tarrodi wrote Birds of Paradise, she was listening to a record of bird sounds and was inspired to write the piece after watching a nature film about these beautiful and unusual creatures. She wrote the piece for Musica Vitae, which premiered it in 2008.
Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy's Symphony No 4 'The Italian ' is one of his most popular and life-affirming works. Mendelssohn himself referred to the symphony as 'the happiest piece I have ever written'. It was written after traveling around Italy and being fascinated by its culture, history and landscape, and he sought to capture the colors and atmosphere of the country in his music. The symphony has four movements: Allegro vivace, Andante con moto, Con moto moderato and a final wild Saltarello. The symphony was first performed in London in 1833, but Mendelssohn was not satisfied with it and revised it several times. Never published during his lifetime, it was only released in its original version in 1851 and immediately became a firm favorite in the orchestral repertoire!
Fantasiestücke op. 73
Piano Quartet in E flat major op. 47
Welcome to a relaxed concert in the foyer with some of our fantastic festival artists. The program includes two beloved works by Robert Schumann: Fantasiestücke for clarinet and piano and the great Piano Quartet in E flat major!
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Fantasiestücke op. 73 are three short pieces originally written for clarinet and piano, but often performed on violin or cello. Schumann was a master of abrupt changes in music and these pieces are no exception. They are entitled 'Zart und mit Ausdruck' (tender and expressive), 'Lebhaft, leicht' (lively, light) and 'Rasch und mit Feuer' (fast and with fire).
In the first piece, the clarinet sings a beautiful melody over the piano accompaniment, often inviting a dialog between the two instruments. The second piece is exuberant and playful, showing Schumann's humor and imagination. The clarinet and piano exchange fast and light phrases, sometimes broken by more lyrical passages. The third piece is a passionate and virtuosic rondo, full of temperament and power. It is as if the clarinet and piano are competing to impress each other with their fast runs, big jumps and rhythmic figures.
The Piano Quartet in E flat major op. 47 is one of Schumann's most famous and beloved chamber music works. It was written during his 'chamber music year' of 1842, when he also wrote three string quartets, a piano quintet and a fantasy for violin and piano. In addition to the piano works, Schumann had previously composed mainly for piano and voice, but was inspired by his wife Clara, an accomplished pianist and composer, to explore other musical forms.
The piano quartet consists of four movements: Allegro ma non troppo, Scherzo: Molto vivace, Andante cantabile and Finale: Vivace. The first movement is strikingly lyrical, with an ever-present restless energy. The second movement is clearly inspired by the scherzo in Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream. It is elusive music that rarely reaches above the dynamic range of the piano.
The third movement has been criticized for possibly being too beautiful, if that is possible. The cello and violin have prominent roles in conveying the vocal lines in a movement that begins beautifully and becomes even more beautiful along the way. The fourth and final movement is a brilliant and virtuosic finale based on the interweaving of the different voices in several grandiose fugues, ending the work in complete triumph!
Jacob Kellermann has established himself as one of Scandinavia's most active and sought-after guitarists. In addition to playing regularly throughout Sweden, he has performed as a soloist and chamber musician internationally in concert halls such as Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Prinzregententheater and Gasteig Munich. Kellermann has released three critically acclaimed albums on the BIS Records label. The latest album, released in 2021, in which he interprets Rodrigo's classical guitar concerto Concierto de Aranjuez, was awarded a Grammis, Diapason D'or and was named Classical Album of the Year in Dagens Nyheter. The album received very positive reviews internationally and was praised by The Guardian, The Times, Gramophone Magazine and the Dutch NRC, among others.

Part 1 - Silent movie: Assassination of the Duke of Guise
Music by Camille Saint-Saens
Part 2 - Games: Songs of Travel
Music by Elaine Agnew
The 1917 silent film The Assassination of the Duke of Guise is a milestone in the development of cinema. A historical drama depicting the murder of the French nobleman and warlord Henry I of Guise in 1588, it is one of the very first examples of music written specifically for a film. French composer Camille Saint-Saëns composed six pieces for piano, harmonium and strings that follow the plot and mood of the film. The music and film have a running time of about 17 minutes.
Game Songs of Travel is part of the EU project of the same name. The game consists of five chapters exploring different aspects of migration by following the personal stories of five individuals fleeing their home countries to a new beginning in Europe. The music is by Fairplay Chamber Music and was composed by Irish composer Elaine Agnew.

ur 4 pieces op.2
Hawar Tawfiq - Voyage (premiere)
-PAUS
Frederic Chopin - Ballade no 4 in F minor
Ralph Vaughan-Williams - Songs of Travel
This evening concert is part of the EU project Songs of Travel and reflects different aspects of travel, both physical and spiritual. We will be immersed in music originating from many geographical locations and often related to dramatic contexts.
Traveling is a magical phenomenon, which transforms the old person into a new person. From this point of view, our life is a journey with the final destination of meeting our death." - Hawar Tawfiq
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Sergei Prokofiev 'sHebrew Overture was written in 1919 in the USA, inspired by a collection of Jewish folk melodies. The work is written for the unusual combination of clarinet, string quartet and piano, and the sound world is reminiscent of Klezmer and other Jewish music.
This is followed by a selection of short works for solo piano by Ukrainian composer Valentin Silvestrov, performed by Daria van der Bercken. Silvestrov's deeply meditative and atmospheric piano music has been described as 'silent songs', expressing a longing for the lost and the eternal.
The festival's second commissioned work is by the Kurdish composer Hawar Tawfiq, now based in the Netherlands. Written for chamber ensemble and voice, Voyage is based on texts by the 13th century Persian poet and mystic Jalal al-din Rumi. Rumi's poems express Sufi mysticism and use rich images and symbols to depict the boundlessness of love and the essence of religion.
Chopin's Ballade in F minor, one of his most popular and dramatic works for piano, performed by Finghin Collins. The ballad is an example of Chopin's genius for creating a story with music that evokes strong emotions in the listener. Chopin wrote the ballad between 1842 and 1843, during a period when he was traveling between Paris and Nohant, where he lived with his beloved George Sand.
The concert ends with Ralph Vaughan-Williams ' song cycle Songs of Travel with lyrics by Robert Louis Stevenson. The songs depict the experiences and reflections of a traveler and express wanderlust, beauty, love, doubt, loneliness and spirituality. Vaughan-Williams wrote the songs between 1901 and 1904 and they have become one of his most frequently performed works.
Road Movies by John Adams
The Late Night concert is 40 minutes long, including the work Road Movies by John Adams.

Amy Beach - Romans for violin and piano

Lasse Thoresen - Every Minute Opens a Door
Amy Beach - Piano Quintet in F sharp minor
Adagio - Allegro moderato
Adagio espressivo
Allegro agitato - Adagio come prima - Presto
The concert features works by four composers who have explored travel and encounters with other cultures in different ways, one of which is the fifth and final commissioned work of the festival.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
We begin with a bittersweet Romance for violin and piano by Amy Beach, considered the first successful American female composer. The romance was written for her husband as a wedding gift, a wedding that in many ways marked the end of Beach's career as a pianist but also the beginning of her composing career.
Franz Liszt's Petrarch sonnets were originally written as songs with text by the Italian Renaissance poet Francesco Petrarch but later Liszt rewrote them in versions for solo piano as part of his second collection of pieces called Pilgrim's Years and it is this version that we encounter here. The sonnets are examples of Liszt's late style, characterized by rich harmony and enormous spiritual depth.
The work Ode to Napoleon is a celebration of Arnold Schoenberg, who would have turned 150 in 2024. Considered one of the most influential and innovative composers, this work was written in 1942 in the United States, where Schoenberg was forced to flee during World War II. Schönberg based the work on a poem by Lord Byron, who criticized Napoleon for his lust for power and cruelty, and the work can be seen as a protest against tyranny and dictatorship. The setting with reciter, pianist and string quartet is typically Schoenbergian and the work blends elements of both tonal and atonal music in a celebration of the ideals of freedom.
After the break, we return to the present with a work by Norwegian composer and professor Lasse Thoresen. Commissioned for the Songs of Travel project, Every Minute opens a door is a musical reflection on the challenges and opportunities of migration.
"The starting point for my piece will be Vladimir Levchev's poem The Refugee, which ends with the compelling words: we may have traveled to eternity." - Lasse Thoresen
The concert ends with Amy Beach, whose music we also met at the beginning. The piano quintet is perhaps her most successful work and has become a favorite among many concertgoers and musicians alike. The quintet was written after a trip to Europe where she studied French and German music and here you can sense influences from both Brahms and French impressionism, while Amy Beach's own strong musical identity constantly shines through!
Take the opportunity to hear some of Sweden and Europe's most promising young musicians perform the pieces of music they have been working on during our Academy Week.
At the festival, Sara Parkman collaborates with several of our festival artists in a unique concert.
Sara Parkman is the folk musician who has questioned and embraced tradition so unabashedly and thoughtfully that she has created her own musical universe - and in doing so, has become the poster child of contemporary Swedish folk music. After three acclaimed solo albums, it's now just as natural to hear her music pulsating through the fog in the summer night forest as it is to see her perform it live on popular TV programs.
Over the years, Sara Parkman has been awarded several prizes at the Folk and World Music Gala, been awarded the Dagens Nyheter Culture Prize and - as at the Manifesto Gala earlier this year - been named the best live act of the year. When her latest album Eros Agape Philia was released in October, it was met with rave reviews. Nöjesguiden gave it its highest rating, writing: "It is folky, mystical, powerful and modern", and the album has been at the top of DN's album chart for no less than five weeks.
Take the opportunity to hear some of Sweden and Europe's most promising young musicians perform the pieces of music they have been working on during our Academy Week.
