  "He is not just a virtuoso like many others, he is a voice" (Diapason Magazine). Not yet 25 and Gramophone's 2022 Young Artist of the Year, Johan Dalene makes his eagerly anticipated SF Performances debut. His ability to "make his Stradivarius sing like a master" (Le Monde), coupled with his refreshingly honest musicality and engagement with musicians and audiences alike, has won him countless admirers. He is accompanied by award-winning pianist Sahun Sam Hong.

Winner of the 2019 prestigious Carl Nielsen Competition, Swedish-Norwegian violinist Johan Dalene "is not just a virtuoso like many others, he is a voice. He has a tone, a presence" (Diapason). At the age of 23, he has performed with leading orchestras and in celebrated recital halls both at home and abroad. His ability to "make his Stradivarius sing like a master" (Le Monde), coupled with his refreshingly honest musicality and engagement with musicians and audiences alike, has won him countless admirers. In 2022, he was named Gramophone's Young Artist of the Year.

In 2023-24, Johan will showcase his flair for curation as he becomes Artist-in-Residence with the Gavle Symphony and Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, working with conductors such as Andrew Manze, Jaime Martin and Domingo Hindoyan, as well as presenting chamber music projects. An advocate for new music, he will also be performing a concerto written for him by Tebogo Monnakgotla, having given the world premiere with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic and John Storgards in April 2023.
