Musical perfection meets the beauty of nature in this inspiring season opener. Camerata Nordica’s Octet, composed of principal players from Sweden’s foremost chamber orchestra, makes their North American debut with extraordinary energy and precision. Performing standing up and without a conductor, these virtuoso musicians bring a uniquely intimate and expressive approach to chamber music. The evening features the world premiere of Hanna Helgegren’s The Nordic Seasons. This groundbreaking work explores the contemplative stillness of Nordic winters and the euphoric return of light, drawing inspiration from Swedish folk traditions. Enhanced by a brilliant film, commissioned to deepen the storytelling and artistic impact.

Framed by Mozart’s elegant Gran Sestetto Concertante and Tchaikovsky’s passionate Souvenir de Florence, this Grammy-nominated ensemble promises an unforgettable evening. Don’t miss our traditional post-concert welcome with champagne toast!
