Mika Väyrynen – Of Life and Death
Powerful music for accordion
You can watch a free live stream of the concert on Youtube, 8 September, 19–20.
The theme for this concert is the cycle of life and death. We begin with children playing and end with a new, gargantuan work by Paavo Korpijaakko, his Sonata no. 3 ‘Testament’. We thus trace an arc from childhood to death, in one form or another.
