Over to Finland this week for a concert from the 2010 Naantali Music Festival and a performance by Virtuosi di Kuhmo of music by Finnish composer Aulis Sallinen.
Sallinen's music is making inroads over here and it's really nice to hear a concert dedicated entirely to his work.
The concert is relayed by Radio France, so the announcements are in French, not Finnish (put the dictionaries away). It's a little over 90 minutes and is split between two players.
For you note takers:
Part 1. (top player)Dialogue 5, Pas De Deux, Ext. de l’œuvre Les dialogues de Barabbas Op.84*
Cruseliana Op.93**
Part 2. (bottom Player)Concerto de chambre***
Puut, kaikki heidän vihreytensä ****
Virtuosi di Kuhmo:
Mika Väyrynen, Accordéon*
Mikael Helasvuo, Flûte**
Jorma Valjakka, Hautbois**
Michel Lethiec, Clarinette**

Concert donné le 14 juin 2010 en l’ Eglise de Naantali dans le cadre du Festival de musique de Naantali
It should keep you moderately sane for the rest of the week, or at least until tomorrow.
