THE CONCERT HALL'S GREAT CHRISTMAS CONCERT

A sparkling show with the songs you long for. Warm musical greetings for an unusual Christmas, presented by concert hall director Stefan Forsberg and with singers such as Elin Rombo and Malena Laszlo.

Welcome to the Concert Hall's big Christmas concert, a sparkling show with the beloved classic Christmas songs and favorites from the American tradition. This year's concert is digital, but just as wonderful, varied and generous as usual. Concert Hall Director Stefan Forsberg is the host.

Together with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, this year's concert features the versatile soprano and court singer Elin Rombo who has made a number of acclaimed leading roles at the Royal Opera, including in the humorous production of Lehar's Glada Änkan, but also in operas such as Richard Strauss' Rosenkavaljeren and Mozart's Don Giovanni.

Also participating is bassist Henning von Schulman, who for several years was a member of the soloist ensemble at the Copenhagen Opera and performed title roles in operas such as Mozart's Figaro's Wedding and Don Giovanni and Verdi's Macbeth.

Extra features on stage will be with the musical artist Malena Laszlo who, among other things, has made her own shows at Nalen in Stockholm and the Victoria Theater in Malmö and played leading roles in successes such as Guys & Dolls and Grease at Göta Lejon.

Samuel Ljungblahd has excelled in soul, r'n'b and not least gospel, in music with a church profile. He made his record debut in 2005 and has since released a handful of albums, the most recent of which was Witness from 2019.

Conductor Alexander Hanson leads the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the gospel choir By Grace.
