The orchestra brings the best of Iceland: Anna Thorvaldsdóttir’s Aeriality, which was released on Deutsche Grammophon and garnered a lot of attention, and pianist wonder Víkingur Ólafsson, who made the Gothenburg audience gasp on his visit in 2014.

He’ll play Richard Strauss’ breakneck Burleske for Piano and Orchestra, a 20 minute display for any virtuoso worth their salt. Yan Pascal Tortelier is the conductor, and also he leads the orchestra in a piece Gothenburg knows well: Sibelius’ Symphony No. 2.
