Christian Lindberg takes to the rostrum in our Soloist Directs Series, bringing a largely Scandinavian programme which includes a work for two trombones by Jan Sandström. Distant horns and delicate woodwind-enchantment open Weber's magical Oberon Overture, while an avian inspiration finds its way into Sibelius' fifth symphony: 'I saw sixteen swans. One of my greatest experiences! They circled over me for a long time.their call.the 5th Symphony's finale theme.'.
