Stockholm Early Music Festival (SEMF) 2021 - 20th Anniversary Artists!

An anniversary should be celebrated – even in days of pandemic! 20 years of commitment to early music in Sweden and an uninterrupted effort to build bridges between genuine historical music expressions and us living people. On a birthday, gifts are handed out - so also does SEMF, with a tray full of musical surprises. Russian star, baroque violinist Dmitry Sinkovsky, fascinates on the opening night with Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, performed for the first time at the festival! A famous visit is bestowed by our own Anne Sofie von Otter with fine accompaniment from France. It will be a spectacular treat to see and hear the New Collegium (The Netherlands) masters Bach concerts on no less than 4 harpsichords at the same time! Be amazed by the polyphonic wonders of the English super choir Tenebrae and follow fiery Spanish renaissance turns offered by Accademia del Piacere. Tableaux Vivants - Caravaggio’s masterpieces as live paintings, directly from Naples, and Huun Huur Tu, millennial Tuvinian throat singing, top the
