Sielunmessu seuraaville sukupolville (Requiem for Future Generations) Helsinki Chamber Choir, Nils Schweckendiek, Jan Lehtola
Event Introduction
In a programme ranging from the subdued hues of Arvo Pärt to the multifaceted microtonality of Sampo Haapamäki, the Helsinki Chamber Choir and Jan Lehtola explore the latest currents of music for choir and organ as well as the relationship we have with our future. Manannán, a world premiere by the masterful Irish composer Rhona Clarke, focuses on the beauty and violent force of the oceans in an era of rising sea levels. We also hear the first choral work the incomparably inventive Jukka Tiensuu has written in 30 years.
