Roxette to perform on Victoria’s wedding?

by

The Daily Roxette reveals today that Roxette are very probable to perform on Crown Princess Victoria and her fiancee Daniel’s wedding on June 18th in Stockholm. It is no secret that Victoria likes Gessle’s music since she was on few of his concerts and Per even performed in Victoria’s birthday gala in 2003 (“Födelsedag” & “Här kommer alla känslorna (på en och samma gång)“).

 

The wedding and concert will be broadcasted live on SVT1 and many other international TV-stations.

Will we hear new Roxette single then or a classic hit single?

Roxette song book on the way?

by

According to some tweets from Twitter, Swedish Gehrmans Musikförlag should be working on a Roxette song book.

Here are the tweets:

Gehrmans: Music engraving madness for the #Roxette book. Why is it a always a choice between too spacious or tight? 3 or 4 systems/page we wonder…

(this tweet was re-tweeted by Per, that’s why actually some fans came across this information ;))

Sweet_curly : @Gehrmans Does that mean you are going to publish orchestral scores of Roxette songs?

Gehrmans: @Sweet_Curly No, it’s not orchestral scores but a really good song book!

@Gehrmans Thank you for your answer! Any chance, that this songbook will be published outside of Sweden as well? Germany, e.g.? 😉

@Sweet_Curly Yes. I beleive it’s in english for an international market. I’ll have the actual producer tweet you with info. /Henrik

Update: @joroxer The new #Roxette book will include their singles. 30 songs, about a third not published as #sheetmusic before.

“Hitlåtens historia” with “The look” available to watch

by

Have you ever known that it was Clarence who counted 1-2-3-4 in “The look”? This and more in the exclusive footage from the recording studios in SVT’s “The look” documentary. It seems it was co-produced by Danish and Norwegian TV-stations, so it’s very probable it will be broadcasted in other Scandinavian countries.

In my opinion – the best Roxette documentary of 21st century.

Update: Fellow rox fan shirley is working on an English translation of the documentary, which should lead to a subtitled video. You can read her work in progress at R2R forums and maybe help her!
