Norrlandsoperan Symphony Orchestra
Company Description
Norrlandsoperan is an opera house with a symphony orchestra, opera, dance, music, art, as well as workshops and studios. We began our operations in 1974 as a small and bold opera ensemble, with a desire to create the performing arts of tomorrow. In 1984 we took over the former fire station in Umeå. This building was then transformed into today’s modern opera house and was completed the same year. In 2002, the complex was expanded with a new theater and concert hall, and new dressing rooms were established in the older part of the building.
The purpose of Norrlandsoperan is to provide space for bolder performing arts and a braver society, and our vision is to be a place where the future is created by many and various.
