The young Swedish conductor and violinist Fredrik Busted has in recent times established himself as a musician with an unique ability to capture an audience and intrigue the individual listener. He is in the initial stages of a promising career as a conductor and has already been the guest conductor in a number of professional orchestras in Sweden and abroad.
Fredrik received in first musical instruction from his father, a well-known violinist and pedagogue and he later continued his violin studies with Leo Berlin at the Royal University College of Music in Stockholm and later with David Takeno. He made his solo-debut with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra in 1996 and was subsequently invited as soloist in orchestras all over Europe. Fredrik’s pronounced interest in contemporary music has resulted in the commissioning of many new pieces, some of which he has recorded for the CD “Cordes sur bois” - a Swedish Grammy Award Nominee in 2005.
Fredrik Burstedt is considered one of Scandinavia’s leading concert masters, and has been invited in this function to most Swedish orchestras. Since 2002 he is First Concert Master in the Helsingborg Symphony Orchestra.
Since 1999 he works regularly with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, and as concert master and principal player he has worked closely with renowned conductors such as Claudio Abbado, Gustavo Dudamel and Daniel Harding. In 2005 he played for the first time in the Luzern Festival Orchestra, the hand picked orchestra consisting of the absolute elite of international orchestra musicians.
Fredrik Burstedt commenced his conducting studies in 2005 and was after just one year admitted to Professor Jorma Panula’s Diploma class at the Royal University College of Music in Stockholm. After participating in the Svenska Dirigentpriset (Swedish Conducting Prize)-competition in 2006, Fredrik Burstedt was awarded the first Sixten Ehrling Prize for Young Conductors.
Fredrik enjoys accompanying singers and instrumentalists alike, and has worked with prominent soloists, such as pianists Per Tengstrand and Hans Leygraf and Copenhagen Opera’s first soprano, Gitta-Maria Sjöberg. During the season 07/08 he conducted the symphony orchestras of Helsingborg, Gävle and Norrköping as well as Italy’s I Pomeriggi Musicali and the NorrlandsOperan Symphony Orchestra in Umeå. He also led a concert performance of Mozart’s The Magic Flute in Luleå’s new House of Culture and the chamber version of Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde in Stockholm and Helsingborg. In the calendar for the current season we find the conducting debuts with the Swedish Chamber Orchestra, Malmö Symphony Orchestra and the Nordic Chamber Orchestra as well as returning engagements with the Jönköping Sinfonietta a.o.
