Allan Pettersson’s Eighth

At this concert, the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra’s own Jakob Nilsson steps into the spotlight as soloist in the Trombone Concerto by Danish composer Launy Grøndahl. “It’s a standard work that every trombonist knows. It’s lyrical and powerful – comparable to Elgar’s Cello Concerto or Grieg’s Piano Concerto. It showcases the instrument’s full range,” says Jakob Nilsson.
