Signals from Heaven

What does music from heaven sound like? The Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra’s brilliant brass and percussion musicians are centre stage in a concert where André Jolivet’s Fanfares pour Britannicus from 1946 meets Tōru Takemitsu’s dreamily poetic Signals from Heaven. The concert is crowned by Aaron Copland’s fanfare, written for the centenary of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Richard Strauss’ effervescent fanfare dedicated to the Vienna Philharmonic – all led by conductor Andreas Hanson.

Season 2020/2021

    Who will save Alfie Atkins?

    Alfie sits alone in the apartment where he lives and feels lonely. He has moved to a new place and doesn’t know any of the other children there. Sometimes his imaginary friend Malcolm appears, and when they play together, Alfons always gets to decide — like being the train driver when they play trains. The problem is that Mållgan never shows up when he is really needed, like when the “big boys” chase Alfons and spray his jacket with water pistols. A performance about friendship, based on Alfie Atkins, the beloved children’s book character created by Gunilla Bergström.
