A regular guest at Covent Garden, the English National Opera and the Bavarian State Opera, he returns, after making his acclaimed American debut at Cal Performances in 1998. Learn More
This was my first event using goldstar. I was a little nervous, seeing that i had never purchased any tickets on line. However, everything went smoothly. My seats were unexpectedly great in orchastra. And the music....... wow...... it was such a wonderful day!
It was GREAT for the price of $8!
The performance was stellar. I heard the pianist interpret Beethoven in a new way...delicate, soft, dynamic, exciting....the conductor conducted the entire program without a score, using his whole body to elicit what he wanted and help us understand the music better. By some wonderful fluke, the seats we had (although row V) had perfect sightlines to see the pianist's hands.

Founded in 1995, the acclaimed Swedish Chamber Orchestra presents new perspectives, not only for traditional chamber ensemble repertoire but also for music that is usually perceived as belonging to the realm of the full-size symphony orchestra. The gifted ensemble of 38 musicians is led by Music Director Thomas Dausgaard ("a conductor of rare conviction and insight," says London's Daily Telegraph). The Berkeley concert also features Polish-Hungarian pianist Piotr Anderszewski, who has been widely praised for the intensity and originality of his interpretations after first coming to public attention at the 1990 Leeds Piano Competition. The program will include works by Mozart, Beethoven, Schumann, and a Swedish composer to be announced.
