Twelfth Night Concert and Ball

Experience an unforgettable Twelfth Night, overflowing with fantastic music, food and drink. This Twelfth Night Concert will be a powerful experience, with famous choral pieces from favourite operas and musicals. The 46 opera singers from the Göteborg Opera Chorus will present a wide range of beloved pieces ranging from the tender Easter Hymn from ”Cavalleria rusticana” to the rustic and grandiose Prisoner’s Chorus from ”Nabucco”. Conductor and Choir Master Martin Nagashima Toft has worked as a musical director and conductor at opera houses and symphony orchestras throughout Europe.

After the concert, the Main Stage will be transformed into a ballroom, where the Göteborg Opera’s Viennese Orchestra will strike up some dance music, and later pass the baton to Stardust Big Swing Band, featuring guest artists. As the dancers sweep by, you’ll see tail-coats, tuxedos, full-length silk gowns, black sheath dresses and kilts – dress in whatever you think is beautiful!
