Göteborg Wind Orchestra, James Bond konsert, Anders Frejdh

Gothenburg Wind Orchestra (GWO) celebrates the music from the James Bond films at Haga Concert Hall on November 23, 2024. The concert is headlined by singer Kristin Amparo who has achieved success among both Swedish and international audiences through her expressive and powerful soul voice. Host for the concert is Anders Frejdh, Founder and Managing Editor of From Sweden with Love. Calle Rasmusson will be conducting.

James Bond, also known as agent 007, has spellbound its audience for more than 70 years and is still as relevant as ever. The theme songs and music from the films have been praised worldwide and have had an important role for the success of the films. “Live and Let Die” by Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney, “For Your Eyes Only” by Bill Conti and “License To Kill” by Jeffrey Cohen, Narada Michael Walden and Walter Afanasieff are some examples.
