Lied concert with Persson and Eriksson

At the season's final lied concert, two singers perform: soprano Miah Persson and baritone Arvid Eriksson. The program combines classical German lieder with Swedish songs.

Miah Persson is a renowned performer at the world's leading opera houses and is also very active in concert settings. She has appeared with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra on numerous occasions and has also presented several romance concerts before, most recently in 2021 featuring songs by Stenhammar.

The young Swedish baritone Arvid Eriksson has had mentors such as Anne Sofie von Otter and Peter Mattei. Among well-known song cycles he has performed are Robert Schumann's Dichterliebe and Mahler's Rückert-Lieder, but closest to his heart is Swedish songs and composers like Stenhammar, Rangström, and Peterson-Berger.

Magnus Svensson is the artistic director of Konserthuset’s Lied concerts. In addition to concerts in the Nordic region and elsewhere in Europe, he has also performed in Russia and the US. Since 2012, he has also worked at the Royal Swedish Academy of Music with re-publishing older Swedish music.
