That organ still exists and was restored in Tornedalen: the main body in Övertorneå and the back positive in Hietaniemi. The organ's mean-tempered tuning is excellent for repertoire from all over Europe written before Johann Sebastian Bach. The organ is often used in teaching and concerts by students and teachers. Lars Sjöstedt will give a concert on this organ on Friday evening.
Lars Sjöstedt's concert focuses on music by Sweelinck and his students, including Scheidt, Scheidemann, and the Düben brothers. The Düben brothers were crucial for the development of organ art in Sweden because they copied and preserved the repertoire of the North German composers for the future.Norrfjärden churchContactSaturday 5 April

On April 26, this timeless comedy returns to theaters worldwide with a live broadcast from the Metropolitan Opera. The Marriage of Figaro is a meeting between Mozart's musical highlights and one of the best librettos ever created. Adapting a play that created a scandal with its revolutionary approach to 18th-century society, librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte focused less on the original references and more on the timeless issues embedded in everyday comedy. The Marriage of Figaro premiered at the Burgtheater in Vienna in 1786.
Conductor Joana Mallwitz makes her Met debut and takes the baton to lead a brilliant ensemble. The American bass-baritone Michael Sumuel is the sly servant Figaro and the Ukrainian soprano Olga Kulchynska the cunning servant Susanna. Canadian baritone Joshua Hopkins the womanizing count, Italian soprano Federica Lombardi his tormented wife and French mezzo-soprano Marianne Crebassa the young page Cherubino.

In 2019, they released their semi-legendary self-titled debut album with music by Oja and lyrics by Christina Karlsson, Annika Norlin, Martin Abrahamsson and Mattias Alkberg. The album received rave reviews and has since only continued to cement its place as one of the best modern Swedish indie records.
In 2024, Honungsvägen is finally back both on stage and with new music, this autumn the band's long-awaited second album arrives. The single Ambush from within was released in May via Pygmalion Musik and is the first taste of what's to come.
About Dalmatia: Dalmatin is the indie band from Umeå that was united by the interest in songwriting. The band consists of the songwriters and producers Ville Isakson Jonsson, Karl Fjellborg and Ludvig Carlborg.
The trio debuted with the single Festival in October 2023, followed by the single Såna som oss will always lose. The singles led to the debut EP Dagarna & vällarna, which in January 2024 started the band's musical year. Since then, they have had time to rotate on P3, have been nominated for Breakthrough of the Year in the GAFFA award and played around Sweden to sold-out clubs. The music is inspired by acts such as Alvvays, Shout Out Louds and Markus Krunegård.
In May, the debut album Ansiktet i gruset was released via Roxy Recordings and this autumn they visit Piteå for the first time.

The Metropolitan's music director Yannick Nézet-Séguin will take the conductor's baton on May 17 to lead this one-act play, which will be broadcast live in cinemas in Sweden.
At the helm of the Met's first new production of Salome in 20 years, we have Claus Guth, one of Europe's leading opera directors, placing the biblical story in a psychologically astute Victorian setting. This powerful opera derives from a biblical story: a young princess from Judea dances for her stepfather Herod and chooses as a reward the head of the prophet John the Baptist. This theme attracted the imaginations of many artists, but was perhaps best realized in Oscar Wilde's tragedy of 1891. Strauss's score combines the grandeur of Wagner's epic works with the focus and emotional power of the short Italian verismo operas. Salome premiered at the Dresden Court Opera in 1905.
South African soprano Elza van den Heever stars as the unbalanced anti-heroine Salome, with Swedish baritone Peter Mattei as the imprisoned prophet Jochanaan. German tenor Gerhard Siegel is Salome's unpleasant stepfather King Herod, American mezzo-soprano Michelle DeYoung plays his wife Herodias, and Polish tenor Piotr Buszewski is Narraboth.

Young opera star Aigul Akhmetshina stars in the live broadcast from the MET on 31 May.
Rossini's well-honed treasure survived a notoriously disastrous opening night in 1816 to become what is perhaps the world's most popular comic opera. The lively humor and elegant melodies have delighted audiences of every generation for two centuries. Several of opera's most recognizable melodies have become a large part of the opera world. The Barber of Seville premiered at the Teatro Argentina in Rome in 1816. Russian mezzo-soprano Aigul Akhmetshina stars as the temperamental heroine Rosina alongside American tenor Jack Swanson as her secret lover Count Almaviva. Moldavian baritone Andrey Zhilikhovsky plays Figaro, the genial barber from Seville, with Hungarian bass-baritone Peter Kálmán as Dr. Bartolo. Russian bass Alexander Vinogradov is Don Basilio, completing the main ensemble. Giacomo Sagripanti conducts Bartlett Sher's wild production.

Welcome to a concert where timeless masterpieces meet concentrated presence and spontaneous whimsy. After a single and an EP in the spring, the trio's debut album was released on September 6, 2024.

The situation became so serious that Cris had to flee for his life, while his wife and two sons stayed behind. Today, Cris lives in Piteå, where he is happily reunited with his family. In 2018, his single Piteå för alla – Cris' låt was released to pay tribute to the city that welcomed him. The song became the Song of the Week on Sveriges Radio P4 Norrbotten.. With my music, I want to celebrate the differences between us humans and create a dialogue between the audience and me as an artist.

Tingsek, or Magnus Tingsek, has since his debut as a 27-year-old released seven albums that combine elements of gospel, soul, jazz and Swedish lyric.

After a celebrated participation in Norrbotten Big Band's annual concert Soulful December 2019, a continued collaboration has been long-awaited. Now Tingsek's unique sound is combined with the big band's energy in a project where the music has been arranged by, among others, Norrbotten Big Band's artistic director, Joakim Milder.
We are very much looking forward to the collaboration with Tingsek, also because it is an obvious part of Norrbotten Big Band's idea of the organic music scene - where creative, creative meetings can grow, continue and deepen, says Joakim.
Don't miss the chance to experience this exciting meeting between Tingsek's soulful melodies and Norrbotten Big Band's powerful arrangements. An evening where musical worlds come together and create something new and unforgettable.
