About this event

This symphonic production by the Malmö SymfoniOrkester (MSO) is built around the theme of impressionistic waves, folk-tinged rhythms, and the promise of the unexpected. The concert marks the MSO debut of Pierre Bleuse, one of France's leading conductors, who brings a distinctly French artistic throughline to the evening. The performance is structured to guide the audience from early 20th-century fanfares through contemporary explorations of expectation, culminating in two major masterworks of the orchestral repertoire. A major highlight is the guest appearance of award-winning French pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet in Bartók’s Piano Concerto No. 3, a work he has championed since studying it with Georg Solti. The concert is part of MSO’s prestigious “Platina” and “Guld” subscription series for the 2026–27 season. A pre-concert introduction at 18:00 on the Kanalscenen provides context for the evening’s repertoire, and the venue offers pre-booked food and beverage service to accommodate the 30-minute intermission.
