God in disguise

Ethel Smyth’s vivacious, rhythmic overture to The Boatswain’s Mate is followed by Carl Reinecke’s melodic flute concert with solo flute parts played by Laura Michelin, winner of the 2020 Soloist Award. God in Disguise by Lars-Erik Larsson is one of our most beloved choral works. Hannes Meidal recites Hjalmar Gullberg’s words on humanity and peace, first performed right in the middle of the Second World War. To conclude, we greet the arrival of summer with Hugo Alfvén’s Spring Song and the Finnish composer Einojuhani Rautavaara’s Summer Night.
