Expressen 170618<\/strong><\/p>\n

By: ANDERS BJ\u00d6RKMAN<\/p>\n

It’s a big night for musical lovers. Almost too big.
\n(\u2026)
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

CONCERT<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I love musicals – all stars<\/strong><\/em>
\n Ullevi, G\u00f6teborg<\/strong><\/em>
\n Audience:<\/strong> 26 742<\/em>
\n Who:<\/strong> Peter J\u00f6back, Tommy K\u00f6rberg, Helen Sj\u00f6holm, Tam Mutu, Scarlett Strallen, Ma-Anne Dionisio, Emmi Christensson, dancers, Stockholm Sinfonietta (40 people).<\/em>
\n Conductor: Julian Bigg.<\/em>
\n What:<\/strong> “The World’s Greatest Musical Concert” – According to J\u00f6back, who is the man behind the project. A whole night with melodies from great musicals with Sweden’s three greatest musical stars. J\u00f6back has played against Sj\u00f6holm in “Kristina fr\u00e5n Duvem\u00e5la”, K\u00f6rberg has played against Sj\u00f6holm in “Chess”, but J\u00f6back and K\u00f6rberg have never met on stage before. Here all three meet.<\/em><\/p>\n

The scene is filled with a huge flow of numbers from well-known and lesser-known American and British musicals, as well as some Swedish.
\nBallads, duets, show numbers with dancers, mixed and mixed again.
\n(\u2026)<\/p>\n

Helen Sj\u00f6holm is the greatest star of the evening with her beautiful voice, her dramatic nerve and her immediate humor.
\nWhen she does the touching Du m\u00e5ste finnas<\/em> from Kristina from Duvem\u00e5la<\/em>, the whole of Ullevi raises in a standing ovation.
\nShe is a cheeky Sally Bowles in Cabaret<\/em> and in a sparkling white dress she brings life to Don’t cry for me Argentina<\/em> from Evita<\/em>. And then a dimmed down and beautiful Bortom sol och m\u00e5ne<\/em> from the small Swedish musical Hj\u00e4lp s\u00f6kes.<\/em><\/p>\n

Tommy K\u00f6rberg runs on power and experience. He skillfully takes care of any song, but of course shines the most in Anthem<\/em> where he gets his standing ovation. In the second act he appears sparingly, but delivers a thrilling, jazzy version of My Favorite Things<\/em> from Sound of Music<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Peter J\u00f6back is the host of the evening, presenting musicals and artists in an easy and pleasant way and, of course, meets the expectations of the audience with The Phantom of the Opera<\/em>. He also sings songs from the long line of musicals he has played in.<\/strong>
\n(\u2026)<\/p>\n

Helen Sj\u00f6holm was the best.<\/p>\n
