    • The highlight of the concert was Johan Svendsen's First Symphony, which Røssland interpreted vividly and precisely... Julie Røssland, who conducted with precision and liveliness, managed to create an exceptionally close relationship with the musicians, which was reflected in the effortlessness of making music and the very self-evident design of the music. The pieces fell into place precisely and naturally. The music flowed and communicated in many directions... The highlights were the slow movement, radiating delightfully light and glowing, and the third movement, which borrowed tones from Norwegian folk music. The delicate dialogue between the strings and the clarinets and flutes at the end of the third movement was particularly enjoyable. In the fast extremes, the conductor kept the energy level high and the direction determined.
