At Sea with Göteborg Baroque

Music by Heinrich Schütz, Andreas Kirchoff, Christoph Förster, and others

Join Göteborg Baroque on a journey around the Baltic Sea, as we visit the ports belonging to Sweden between 1611 and 1721–a time that has become known as the Great Power era. While multiple trading hubs surrounded the Baltic Sea, Stockholm was perhaps the most influential one. Göteborg Baroque invites you to an extravagant party, lush with the musical riches from the many lavish events of the region and time period–in this concert embellished with cornettos, trombones and timpani. Tonight’s most esteemed guest is the music professor Mattias Lundberg, known from Swedish Radio, who serves as our toastmaster and tour guide.
