Benedict Nelson performs with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra

This evening at 18:30, baritone Benedict Nelson performs the 2nd of two concerts with Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra.

Nelson will perform the epic cantata “Faust et Helene” by Lili Boulanger. The work is based on the text of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s “Faust”.

Hot on the heels of this engagement, Nelson then performs the same work with the BBC Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican Centre, London this Saturday April 6 as part of a series of concerts celebrating the Boulanger sisters and their trailblazing contribution to the cause of female conductors and composers in the classical music world.
