Stockholm Classical Music Concerts

Join us for Madama Butterfly at the Royal Swedish Opera — an evening of glorious Puccini, beautiful staging, and drama in exquisite musical form.

The story follows the young geisha Cio-Cio-San, whose faith in love collides with the harsher realities of devotion, culture, and power.

We’ll meet at 18:00 by the entrance to socialize before the performance at 19:00, then let the opera do the rest.

Join us for Turandot at the Royal Swedish Opera — a splendid evening of Puccini, impossible riddles, and emotional subtlety. Set in a legendary imperial China, it follows Princess Turandot, who has made marriage a rather high-risk intellectual exercise.

We’ll meet at 18:00 by the entrance to socialize before the performance at 19:00.

It has been called the symphony of symphonies – Beethoven’s Fifth. Perhaps the most frequently performed work in the classical repertoire. This is music that defies indifference, seemingly telling a story of a journey from darkness to light, of a struggle that leads to triumph. More than any other work, the “Fifth” embodies the Beethoven myth: the solitary figure confronting fate, fighting, and ultimately claiming his freedom. The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra is led by young Finnish conductor Kristian Sallinen, who has been described as an exceptional talent.

We usually book in the choir seats.

Let’s watch Nietzsche kontra Wagner together — a music theatre piece about genius, admiration, friendship and a dramatic intellectual breakup.
