Royal Family attended a concert by the Junior Academy

King Carl Gustaf, Queen Silvia, Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel and Princess Estelle and Princess Sofia visited Vasa Theatre in Stockholm to listen to a performance by the Junior Academy Music School. The performance was the music school’s 75th birthday tribute to The Queen.

The performance was inspired by Selma Lagerlöf’s The Wonderful Adventures of Nils, and had been reinterpreted by Anne Sjölund to tell the story of ‘a wonderful adventure with the queen of all children’.

The Queen is patron of the Junior Academy.
