Göteborgs Konserthus Classical Curiosity: Scores in Depth

How do you keep track of everything in a score? What kind of preparations take place when 80 musicians will all perform together? Conductor Johannes Gustavsson reveals the hard work that goes in before a concert, and familiarises us with a Swedish classic: Lars-Erik Larsson’s God in Disguise.

Learn more about classical music in the relaxed Tuesday lectures of the Classical Curiosity lecture series. Enjoy a wonderful blend of stories about the music, information about the composers, and reflections from the stage and salon. You will also have the chance to meet others who are curious about classical music.
