Epiphany Concert 2022
From Verdi to Wagner via Leonard Bernstein and Kate Bush. When the Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Radio Choir and three celebrated soloists celebrate Epiphany with us at Berwaldhallen it will mean festive, traditional, warm, intimate music from the classical orchestral and operatic repertoires, the Swedish folk tradition and popular music. Acclaimed soprano Hanna Husáhr will treat us to Je veux vivre, an aria on the intoxication of youth from Gounod’s opera Romeo and Juliet, and indie vocalist Jennie Abrahamson will be singing her own material and covering Kate Bush. The host for the evening is Jessika Gedin from the talk show Babel, and the concert will be broadcast on the Swedish TV channel 2 SVT on January, Saturday 8 at 7:00 pm.
