This March, the Swedish Philharmonia (Gävle Symphony Orchestra) perform the second event in the 2023/24 International Orchestra Series at Fairfield Halls, with virtuosic Serbian violinist Nemanja Radulovic playing Tchaikovsky’s concerto.
Radulovic, whose recordings of the same work was recently commended in Gramophone Magazine, has appeared with many of the world’s leading orchestras.
The ensemble, directed by Jaime Martín, will open with A Merry Overture Op. 14, a work by Swedish composer Bo Linde.
Linde’s works, which include orchestral, chamber, and vocal music, often explore themes of nature and the human experience, and draw inspiration from Swedish folk music and poetry. He is among the most notable 20th Century neoclassical composers.
The Orchestra’s director, Jaime Martín said:
“We are very lucky, because our soloist is one of the most amazing, exciting, original musicians I know: Nemanja Radulovic.”
“I cannot wait to be with all of you in March, with the Swedish Philharmonia.”
