Open your ears and clear your mind. Gageego! is the endlessly curious chamber ensemble celebrating 30 years of music in 2025. This celebratory concert presents a look back at three decades of music.
The audience’s response propels Gageego! to continuously push forward, towards new discoveries. Gageego! from Gothenburg have been praised in the music world for their fearless dedication to newly composed music. The ensemble has toured Denmark, Russia and China. “A Swedish away victory!” “It made the audience forget their fatigue!” wrote the press after concerts in Vienna.
This celebratory concert presents a look back at three decades of music, from the debut concert focused on American composer Stuart Saunders Smith to a premiere performance of music by Esaias Järnegard. The audience will also hear works by the modern great Pierre Boulez and Paris-based Madeleine Isaksson. This is music that is both challenging and richly rewarding.
