The concert is unfortunately canceled, but you can watch it livestreamed at GSOplay. We will get back as soon as we can to ticket buyers with detailed information about for example new concert dates, exchanges and compensation. In general, we refund all tickets for the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra’s own events, individually as well as within subscriptions. 

The following applies to subscriptions: As we do not yet know when we will be allowed to welcome any audience into the Gothenburg Concert Hall, we will await the development during the autumn. Refunds will be made automatically as soon as we know how the autumn season will be affected, but no later than 15 January 2021.

If you have any questions, please contact our ticket office: biljett@gso.se, +46(0)31-7265300. There is a lot of pressure on the ticket office and we hope that you can be tolerant of the fact that it can take an extra long time to get an answer.

——————————————

Last season, the soprano and conductor Barbara Hannigan became first guest conductor of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra.

Her unmistakable voice and unparalleled sense of beauty in the phrasing have been praised by critics as well as the public. Experience her at this concert in Mahler’s bright and lyrically playful fourth symphony where she both conducts and sings. Music that embodies the fantasy of a heavenly kingdom where everyone lives in harmony with each other. The highlight of the symphony is the last movement with soprano solo: “We enjoy the heavenly delights”.

Joy can quickly turn to sorrow. Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No 44, “Mourning”, has a slow movement that the composer, according to legend, wished for his own funeral. But Haydn would not be Haydn without verve and spirit: the final bursts of energy with its driving rhythms and playful action between the instruments.
