Experience Martin Fröst live on October 15th

Martin Fröst, a Swedish clarinetist renowned for his dynamic stage presence and interpretative depth, will perform at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam on October 15, 2026. Fröst’s musical style is characterized by a blend of technical brilliance and expressive freedom, often pushing the boundaries of traditional clarinet performance. He frequently commissions new works and explores unconventional repertoire alongside established classics, incorporating elements of theatre and visual art into his concerts. He is known for projects like “Kinetic Energy” where he performs while moving around the stage.

The Concertgebouw, opened in 1888, is widely considered one of the world’s most acoustically superb concert halls. Designed by Pieter Cuypers, its rectangular shape and specific dimensions contribute to its celebrated resonance and clarity. Throughout its history, the Concertgebouw has been home to the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, one of the leading orchestras globally. The hall's acoustics are due to a combination of architectural features including the hall’s volume, shoe-box shape, use of specific materials and lack of parallel surfaces. It has hosted performances by virtually every major conductor and soloist since its opening and remains a central venue for classical music internationally.
