Jonas Nordberg playing the theorbo/lute at Stockholm Early Music Festival

In interview with Peter Pontvik the Artistic Director of Stockholm Early Music festival, he said “The festival tries to reach the human being, tries to see the people behind the musician, the artists feel that and that gives a good experience for the public and the artists.” and this was exactly what I could experience during every single event I got the opportunity to attend, it felt like the artists were not these untouchable creatures on a stage but these talented human beings that were delighting the senses and providing of unique experiences to the public with sounds from their instruments. The best example I can find to this was the late night concert (which started at 23:00) TillbakaLUTAd with Jonas Nordberg playing the theorbo/lute to an audience laying down comfortably on mattresses listening to relaxed early music from the 17th century by candle light, since I don’t have the words to explain how great this experience was so I made I short video for you as I laid on my mattress that night.
