To the Hall of the Mountain King

In the woods among the trolls with Nordic music.

Together, we’re searching for the hidden treasures found In The Hall of the Mountain King. Along the way, we meet trolls from the forest, giants, witches and animals. Ayla Kabaca leads the search and sings songs about trolls with the audience, including “Ett gammalt fult och elakt troll” (An Old, Ugly, Mean Troll) and “Trollmors vaggsång” (Troll Mother’s Lullaby).

Nordic music sets the tone In the Hall of the Mountain King, with classic images painted by John Bauer. This performance is produced in partnership with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra.
