Sunday 5 October 2025 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This paste week has been a good and busy one with two concerrs on Wednesday and Thursdag, and also one seminar given by myself also on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My seminar was on the topic of The Art of Practicing-Fire and Shields.It was held for all the students at University of Music and Opera, M\u00e4lardalen University<\/a>., and talked among other things about the importance to understand the whole of a piece to be able to understand the part. I had some nice quotes from Steven Isserlis just some days ago on social media, and an old interview on Sofronitsky. The Fire and Shields subtitle is from Sofronotsky where he talks about the importance above all to have a musical will ( to even want more than you have) and also the need of mental shields to proctect and control yourself on stage. I also had some nice discussions with the students about Rhythm, Melody and Harmony in music, with some different examples on how to work on each of them separately from each other. A very nice two hours for me that unfortunately went by way to fast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The concerts on Wednesday and Thursday was first a student concert at Rikssalen at the Castle of V\u00e4ster\u00e5s. It was a very nice program with music for violin, clarinet, flute and piano. One of my piano students, Oscar Liestam, performed with great sound and sensitivity Mozarts Adagio in B-minor, bravo Oscar and well done!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Thursday I went with several of the students to a concert at the Concert House of V\u00e4ster\u00e5s with a former teacher of mine, professor Stefan Bojsten from the Royal College Academy of Music in Stockholm. It was really a long time since I last heard Stefan play, and I was very happy to hear again his very musical interpretations, as always delivered with an extremely good sound through out! The program consisted of several of the Pr\u00e9ludes by Debussy, the first movement of Pour le Piano and last his L\u2019\u00cesle Joyeuse. We also had the pleasure to hear Mozarts Sonata in C major KWV 330 and Astor Piazollas rarely played suite Suit Para Piano. Warmest thanks to Stefan for a  great recital!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00f6ndag den<\/strong> 5 oktober 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tv\u00e5 konserter och ett seminarium <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Den senaste veckan har varit en bra och hektisk vecka med tv\u00e5 konserter p\u00e5 onsdag och torsdag, och \u00e4ven ett seminarium som jag sj\u00e4lv h\u00f6ll i p\u00e5 onsdagen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mitt seminarium handlade om Konsten att \u00f6va – Eld och sk\u00f6ldar. Det gavs f\u00f6r alla studenter p\u00e5 M\u00e4lardalens h\u00f6gskola<\/a> och handlade bland annat om vikten av att f\u00f6rst\u00e5 helheten i ett stycke f\u00f6r att kunna f\u00f6rst\u00e5 den enskilda delen. Jag hade n\u00e5gra bra citat fr\u00e5n Steven Isserlis som publicerades f\u00f6r bara n\u00e5gra dagar sedan p\u00e5 sociala medier, och en gammal intervju med den ryske pianisten Sofronitsky. Undertiteln till Eld och sk\u00f6ldar \u00e4r tagen fr\u00e5n Sofronotsky d\u00e4r han i intervjun pratar om vikten framf\u00f6r allt av att ha en stark musikalisk vilja (att till och med vilja mer \u00e4n man har) och \u00e4ven behovet av mentala sk\u00f6ldar f\u00f6r att skydda och kontrollera sig sj\u00e4lv p\u00e5 scenen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jag hade ocks\u00e5 n\u00e5gra givande diskussioner med studenterna om rytm, melodi och harmoni i musiken, med olika exempel p\u00e5 hur man kan arbeta med var och en av de musikaliska aspekterna separerade fr\u00e5n de andra. Tv\u00e5 mycket trevliga timmar f\u00f6r mig som tyv\u00e4rr gick alldeles f\u00f6r fort!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Konserterna p\u00e5 onsdag och torsdag var f\u00f6rst en studentkonsert i Rikssalen p\u00e5 V\u00e4ster\u00e5s slott. Det var ett mycket fint program med musik f\u00f6r violin, klarinett, fl\u00f6jt och piano. En av mina pianostudenter, Oscar Liestam, framf\u00f6rde med mycket bra klang och fin k\u00e4nslighet Mozarts Adagio i h-moll, bravo till dig Oscar och bra jobbat! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

P\u00e5 torsdagen gick jag med flera av studenterna p\u00e5 en konsert p\u00e5 V\u00e4ster\u00e5s konserthus med en tidigare l\u00e4rare till mig, konsertpianist och tillika professor Stefan Bojsten fr\u00e5n Kungliga Musikh\u00f6gskolan i Stockholm. Det var l\u00e4nge sedan jag h\u00f6rde Stefan spela senast, och jag blev mycket glad att \u00e5terigen h\u00f6ra hans mycket musikaliska tolkningar, som alltid levererade med en extremt bra klang rakt igenom! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Programmet bestod av flera av Debussys preludier, f\u00f6rsta satsen av Pour le Piano och sist hans L\u2019\u00cesle Joyeuse. Vi hade ocks\u00e5 n\u00f6jet att h\u00f6ra Mozarts Sonat i C-dur KWV 330 och Astor Piazollas s\u00e4llan spelade sviten Suit Para Piano. Varmt tack till dig Stefan f\u00f6r en fantastisk konsert!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
