SUMMARY:KYMI SINFONIETTA WINDS – PLAN B: BARBER & BIZET
DESCRIPTION:Samuel Barber: Summer Music\, Op. 31\nGeorges Bizet: Suite from the opera Carmen (arranged for wind nonet by Andreas N. Tarkmann) \nIf an August summer day had a soundtrack\, this would be it. Barber’s Summer Music paints a landscape where time seems to stand still and the air shimmers with warmth. Bizet’s Carmen sets the atmosphere ablaze with operatic passion. Andreas N. Tarkmann’s witty arrangement for wind nonet offers a fresh perspective on a beloved classic. Sometimes Plan B turns out to be the best option!

SUMMARY:KYMI SINFONIETTA STRINGS – THREE STORIES FOR STRINGS
DESCRIPTION:Heinrich Biber: Battalia à 10\nDmitri Shostakovich: Chamber Symphony in C minor\, Op. 110a (orch. Barshai)\nOsvaldo Golijov: Last Round \nMusic for strings that pulses with energy and resonates with an anti-war message. Composed in the 17th century\, Biber’s Battalia à 10 surprises with its unusual instrumental techniques and strikingly inventive take on Baroque music. Shostakovich’s intense chamber symphony dives deep into the composer’s inner world of light and shadow. Golijov’s Last Round pays tribute to Astor Piazzolla\, blending playful rhythms with elements of tango.

SUMMARY:AMONG THE LIVING – AN EVENING WITH MIKKO KUUSTONEN
DESCRIPTION:Jukka Perko\, saxophone & artistic lead\nMikko Kuustonen\, vocals\nVarre Vartiainen\, guitar \nContinuing in his role as Kymi Sinfonietta’s artistic partner\, Jukka Perko joins forces with his friend\, singer-songwriter Mikko Kuustonen\, to bring Kuustonen’s remarkable body of work to our audiences. At the same time\, Kuustonen fulfils a long-held dream of performing as a soloist with a larger orchestral ensemble. This unique evening will feature both familiar songs and new material. The longtime friends aim to create a spontaneous and unforgettable shared experience. The collaboration is also a tribute to Kuustonen’s diverse artistic journey as well as a bold step towards something new. “Fifty years have passed since I wrote my first song\, and I still experience the creation of every song as a miracle. When writing\, I am alone\, but on stage I become part of a magnificent collective and a flow that brings the songs to life.”

SUMMARY:PEARLS OF THE BALTIC SEA
DESCRIPTION:Conductor: Nathanaël Iselin\nSoloist: Annaleena Jämsä\, flute \nEduard Tubin: Estonian Dance Suite: III. Setu tants\nHeino Eller: Waltz-Fantasy in B minor\nJean Sibelius: Scene with Cranes\, Op. 44 No. 2\nCarl Nielsen: Flute Concerto\nAndrea Tarrodi: Birds of Paradise II\nFelix Mendelssohn: Symphony No. 1 in C minor\, Op. 11 \nNathanaël Iselin begins his season as artistic partner of the orchestra in magnificent style with a programme celebrating Baltic Sea Day on 27 August. Curated by Iselin himself\, this vibrant concert brings the rich musical heritage of the Baltic Sea region to life through dance rhythms\, bird-inspired imagery and the mystique of northern nature. A connecting theme of life by the Baltic Sea runs through the programme\, while Mendelssohn’s youthful First Symphony adds an extra burst of energy to the evening. Danish composer Carl Nielsen wrote his Flute Concerto a century ago\, and audiences in the Kymenlaakso region now have a rare opportunity to hear this lyrical and richly coloured work performed live. The soloist is the versatile and charismatic Annaleena Jämsä.

SUMMARY:ALSO FEATURING KYMI SINFONIETTA: SPIRIT OF THE FOREST – Guest performance at the Loviisa Sibelius Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:Conductor: Tomas Takolander \nUuno Klami: Overture to The Cobblers on the Heath\, Op. 26\nClaude Debussy: Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun\nJoel Järventausta: Naava\nJean Sibelius: Tapiola\, tone poem\, Op. 112 \nKymi Sinfonietta will perform at the Sibelius Music Festival in Loviisa for the first time this year. In keeping with the festival’s theme\, the concert draws its colours from nature\, especially from the forest. The evening opens with Uuno Klami’s spirited overture to The Cobblers on the Heath\, bursting with humour and vitality. Naava\, portraying the mystery of the forest\, offers a fascinating glimpse into the work of Joel Järventausta\, a rising composer gaining international recognition. For this concert\, Tomas Takolander has arranged Sibelius’s Tapiola\, with its powerful evocation of Finnish mysticism and nature\, as well as Debussy’s beautifully flowing Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun\, for Kymi Sinfonietta’s orchestral forces. \nTickets via the event organiser: https://www.loviisansibeliuspaivat.fi

SUMMARY:TRIBUTES
DESCRIPTION:Director and viola soloist: Atte Kilpeläinen \nJohann Sebastian Bach: The Art of Fugue\, BWV 1080: Contrapunctus I\, Contrapunctus IV and Contrapunctus XIII (Rectus and Inversus)\nGyörgy Kurtág: Signs\, Games and Messages: Hommage à J.S.B.\, Ligatura Y and Perpetuum Mobile\nJohannes Brahms: Cello Sonata in E minor\, Op. 38\, arranged (Heribert Breuer) for viola\, wind quintet and double bass\nLouise Farrenc: Nonet in E-flat major\, Op. 38 \nLed by violist Atte Kilpeläinen\, this chamber music evening is built around the idea of tribute\, bringing together masters from different eras in a carefully crafted musical dialogue.\nThe concert particularly celebrates Hungarian composer György Kurtág\, who recently turned 100 and whose music has created uniquely personal sonic worlds. Selected movements from Bach’s The Art of Fugue intertwine naturally with excerpts from Kurtág’s Signs\, Games and Messages\, including one piece dedicated to Bach himself. Brahms’s profound cello sonata is heard here in a rare arrangement: the combination of viola\, wind quintet and double bass reveals entirely new dimensions within the work. The concert concludes with Louise Farrenc’s energetic nonet.
