In the special summer of 2020, Konserthuset Stockholm and the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra presented a National Day Concert for the very first time. It was an immediate success; a tradition was born! This year, the Philharmonic summer greeting is once again presented by Stefan Forsberg – who is not only the CEO of Konserthuset Stockholm but also a much-appreciated host.
Young artist Benjamin Ingrosso has already become a household name. He just released the new single Smile, and his first albums in Swedish: En gång i tiden (Once upon a time), part 1 & 2. The program offers several of the latest songs; here in completely new editions with Benjamin Ingrosso’s sensitive voice and specially written arrangements. Of course, there will also be Swedish orchestral classics by Alfvén and Stenhammar, among others. The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra is led by Alexander Hanson.
”Benjamin Ingrosso radiates so much joy and love – he will give us and the audience exactly the feeling we want to convey with this concert," says Stefan Forsberg. “We welcome a brighter future with this outstretched hand in the spirit of music. We hope that many will join us at their screens, and also participate in a powerful sing-along throughout the country.”
