Karlsson: So We Will Vanish
Anything can happen when Principal Guest Conductor and violinist Pekka Kuusisto takes the stage. This time, he welcomes favourite mezzo-soprano Anne Sofie von Otter for a musical journey of discovery focused on man and nature.
In the Swedish vocal work So We Will Vanish from 2021, Anne Sofie von Otter collaborated with Swedish composer Mikael Karlsson, known from the worlds of opera and ballet. Looking to the treetops, the songs contemplate the ephemerality of nature and the fate we all share – returning to the earth.
