Rumon Gamba and the NorrlandsOperan Symphony Orchestra start their 2014 year with a series of concerts that mark the beginning of their year as European Capital of Culture, which has been several years in the planning. In a projected titled Beethoven & Beyond, they perform the complete Beethoven symphony cycle, together with nine commissioned works by leading Swedish composers inspired by each symphony. The focus on new music continues throughout the year.

Concerts take place on 11, 16, 18 & 23 January.
