The concert has been canceled - Sandström’s Trombone Concerto

It is not for nothing that Sven-David Sandström is called one of the greatest Swedish composers of our time. His newly written trombone concerto has been commissioned by the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and written specially for the orchestra’s trombone virtuoso, Håkan Björkman. The magnificent opening to Richard Strauss’s Also sprach Zarathustra was made famous by Stanley Kubrick’s film, 2001: A Space Odyssey. What few people know however, is that the entire work continues just as powerfully and thought-provokingly as its opening “Sunrise”.
