Skellefteå Kammarkör performs Brahms’ Ein deutsches Requiem at Sankt Olovs kyrka in a version for choir, two pianos and timpani, with two vocal soloists. The concert runs for about 75 minutes without an interval.
Brahms’ requiem differs from the traditional Latin mass for the dead: its focus is on those left behind, rather than judgement of the dead. Biblical texts shape a work about grief and loss, but also consolation, hope and reconciliation. The close interplay of voices, pianos and percussion brings out both the force and intimacy of Brahms’ music.

Nisse Hallberg - 8 years later
From · Sara kulturhus Stage 2
Nisse Hallberg has been sick, tired, a lonely Santa on Christmas Eve and also burned down a house with Betnér. Nothing wrong with those topics. But we're done with that digging now, right? All he wants is for you to have fun. And if there's a Hallberg in this country who knows how to make people laugh, it's fanimej. It's been eight years since Nisse did a solo tour and a lot of things have happened since the last time. He's simply had to reinvent himself several times. We're talking about covid, therapy, separations, new love, hospital visits, pub visits, IVF treatments, more therapy, family formation and then even more therapy. Eight years go by quickly, but now Nisse Hallberg is back! And in the place where he does the most good and also with a stand-up show that's tighter than a pheasant's ass. If there are any stories left to tell? You can give a damn about that. Welcome to 8 years later with Nisse Hallberg.
Hardcore Superstar
From · Sara kulturhus Stage 2
The four-man band from Gothenburg was born in 1997 and were brave enough to merge two styles that previously hated each other: Thrash metal and Sleaze rock. The result was a style-defining hard, aggressive rock mixed with the catchy, melodic and decadent. Twelve albums later and with tours all over the world, Hardcore Superstar belongs to the elite and continues forward without slowing down in the slightest. Opening act: Blister Brigade About Blister Brigade Skellefteå band Blister Brigade plays riff-driven, high-octane hard rock. They also like to push the gas to the limit when it comes to their live performances. With their fourth album A Rioting New Breed under their belt, they are more than ready to warm up the crowd.

Choral Concert: Brahms's Ein deutsches Requiem at Burträsk Church
From · Burträsk Kyrka
Körkonsert med Skellefteå Kammarkör. Brahms requiem skiljer sig från den traditionella latinska dödsmässan. I stället för att kretsa kring domen över de döda riktar sig musiken till dem som är kvar. Genom texter ur Bibeln skapar Brahms ett verk om sorg och förlust, men också om tröst, hopp och försoning. Verket framförs i den version där kören ackompanjeras av två pianon och puka, tillsammans med två sångsolister. Det nära samspelet mellan röster, pianon och slagverk låter både kraften och intimiteten i Brahms musik komma fram. Konserten är ca 1 timme och 15 minuter, ingen paus. Insläpp kl. 17.30. Kompiskort gäller. Rullstolsplatser bokas hos Skellefteå Turistcenter tel. 0910-452510. 1 ledagare har fri entré och behöver förboka fribiljett hos Skellefteå Turistcenter.
