His conducting style is characterized by a meticulous attention to orchestral balance and a capacity to draw nuanced performances from ensembles, frequently revealing previously unnoticed layers within familiar repertoire.

Gothenburg Concert Hall (Götteborgs Konserthus) opened in 1959 and is the home of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra. Designed by architect Nils Kraukis, its acoustics are highly regarded, stemming from extensive research conducted with acoustician Sven-Olof Asplund. The hall’s design incorporates elements inspired by traditional Swedish farm buildings, notably the wooden interior paneling which contributes significantly to its warm sound. It underwent a major renovation and expansion completed in 2016, enhancing both its acoustic qualities and audience facilities while preserving the original architectural intent. The hall regularly hosts international orchestras and soloists alongside performances by resident ensembles.
