I was completely captivated by the French horn and started dreaming of playing that instrument. I played it for a while, along with the piano and trumpet, but eventually decided that the violin was my instrument. When I was little, though, I wanted to be a soccer player.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>For me, it\u2019s important that the conductor has musical vision<\/strong>; otherwise, I often just want to cross that concert or opera off my list and move on. Being able to listen to others\u2014literally\u2014is probably the experience I value most; it\u2019s something that\u2019s been of great benefit to me in my role as a musician. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The best part of my job is when <\/strong>I notice that the audience is moved in some way. The connection you often feel with the audience at chamber music concerts in the countryside is special, and it\u2019s something I always carry with me after the concerts. I really enjoy the variety in my work and getting to play different genres.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In addition to my position in the Norrlandsoperan Symphony Orchestra<\/strong>, I also perform in various other chamber music and church concerts, such as the Avatarkvartetten with my colleagues from the orchestra. I also conduct the Ume\u00e5 Musiks\u00e4llskap. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-column col nb-column col-12 col-lg-4 col-xl-3 offset-xl-1\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-group nb-group  p-32 px-md-128 px-lg-48 py-lg-32 bg-beige-2 no-event-sidebar\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-group nb-group d-flex flex-column row-gap-24\">\n<picture class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-image nb-mask nb-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/pererik_andersson_2X5A3405_webb-liggande.jpg\" alt=\"\" loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/pererik_andersson_2X5A3405_webb-liggande.jpg 540w, https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/pererik_andersson_2X5A3405_webb-liggande-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/norrlandsoperan.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/pererik_andersson_2X5A3405_webb-liggande-300x234.jpg 300w\" class=\" object-fit-contain object-position-center\"><\/picture>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-group nb-group  p-32 bg-white\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-noor-blocks-heading nb-heading nb-cursor-default nb-heading-h5\">Personal<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I enjoy cooking and baking, home improvement, running, strength training, and soccer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":3973,"menu_order":20,"template":"","meta":{"musician_role":"Violin"},"class_list":["post-22034","musician","type-musician","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 -
