Christoffer Nobin

Christoffer Nobin is one of Sweden’s most established orchestral conductors, as well as a composer, arranger, songwriter, artist, and musical director.

He began his career as a classical singer and composer, earning dual degrees from the Malmö Academy of Music before studying orchestral conducting at the Royal Danish Academy of Music, where he graduated with a diploma in 2012. Even as a student, he secured a multi-year contract as a conductor with the Helsingborg Symphony Orchestra and served as an assistant to some of the world’s leading conductors, including Paavo Järvi and Louis Langrée. Since then, he has become one of the most sought-after conductors of his generation in Scandinavia. Internationally, he has worked with the Metropolitan Opera in New York, the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, and the London Symphony Orchestra, and has toured extensively in France, Germany, Austria, Hungary, England, Denmark, and Japan.

As a composer, Christoffer has written several operas and musicals and frequently arranges music for all major Swedish symphony orchestras. He has also conducted and arranged music for numerous films and video games. Notably, he orchestrated and conducted the recording of the Candy Crush soundtrack—at the time, the world’s most-played video game—at Abbey Road Studio One in London. 
He collaborates with many Swedish artists as both conductor and arranger, including Laleh, Benjamin Ingrosso, Veronica Maggio, Magnus Carlson, Amanda Bergman and Sarah Klang, performing at venues such as Avicii Arena, Stockholm Concert Hall, and Berwaldhallen, as well as on radio and television. His adaptation of La Clemenza di Tito, Mozart’s final opera, has been performed at the Barbican Centre in London and the Vienna State Opera.

Christoffer has also served as Head of Music at Norrlandsoperan and as Music Director and Artistic Director of the Nordic Wind Ensemble. He is an alumnus of the think tank Unga tankar om musik, teaches conducting at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, and serves as an advisor on classical music for the Stockholm City Cultural Administration.
Since autumn 2024, he also works as Program Director at Musikaliska Kvarteret in Stockholm—Sweden’s first concert hall.
