Berlin-based sheng artist Wu Wei<\/strong> will be one of the international guests of the festival. The sheng, or mouth organ, is a thousand-year-old wind instrument, especially in China and Japan, from which the accordion and the harmonium, more familiar to many, have later descended. Wu Wei performs sheng music from China in Pernaya Church. The Avant gambay ensemble and tenor Taavi Oramo<\/strong> will perform songs from 16th and 17th century Europe. They will perform compositions by King Henry VIII of England, among others. <\/p>\n Programme<\/strong>: Tickets: 32\u20ac\/ 27\u20ac\/ 16\u20ac + delivery fee (from 1\u20ac per order)<\/p>\n [ps2id id=”torstai” target=”” \/]<\/p>\n Time: Thursday 27.6.2019 at 13.00 and 18.40 (free entry) On Thursday, the traditional opening fanfare will take place in the Art Factory lobby at 13 and 18.40.

The Finnish premiere of Jukka Tiensuu’s work Teoton<\/em> will take place in the Avanti Hall of the Art Factory. The works in the concert are music seen through Baroque glasses. Johannes Sch\u00f6llhorn’s arrangements create a fascinating perspective on the music of J.S. Bach. <\/p>\n Programme<\/strong>: Frank Martin: Petite Symphonie Concertante (Adagio – Allegro con moto – Adagio – Allegretto alla marcia)<\/p>\n Emil Holmstr\u00f6m, piano *** Jukka Tiensuu: Theoton, concerto for sheng and orchestra (Fever, Adrift, Game, Bliss)<\/p>\n Tickets: 40\u20ac\/ 32\u20ac\/ 20\u20ac + delivery fee (from 1\u20ac per order)<\/p>\n Time: Thursday 27.6.2019 at 20.45 or when the Avanti Hall concert ends (free entry) Wu Wei, sheng and Tuomas Norvio, electronics<\/p>\n The opening evening of the Summer Play continues in the warmth of the Porvoo Art Factory, where after the concert we will enjoy improvisations by sound designer and musician Tuomas Norvio<\/strong> and sheng artist Wu Wei<\/strong>.

The performers do not know how the piece begins, let alone how it ends. <\/p>\n Cellist and coloratura soprano Piia Komsi<\/strong> will perform Sky shopping – Hommage \u00e0 Brahms<\/em> by Jovanka Trobojevic, a long-time resident of Yugoslavia. In this breathtaking work, the soloist simultaneously performs the vocal and cello parts in a piece of instrumental theatre. <\/p>\n Swedish-based composer Djuro Zivkovich’s visit to Suvisoito is significant, as the music of this internationally acclaimed composer has rarely been performed in Finland. The work in this concert won him the prestigious Grawemeyer Prize in 2013. All the composers in this concert are from the former Yugoslavia. <\/p>\n Programme<\/strong>:<\/p>\n Vinko Globokar: La Ronde Tickets: 27\u20ac\/ 22\u20ac\/ 14\u20ac + delivery fee (from 1\u20ac per order)<\/p>\n Time: Friday 28.6.2019 16.00 (free entry) Performers: J\u00f3zsef H\u00e1rs, conductor As part of the Summer Music Festival programme, a Composition Workshop concert by young composers will be held in the Factory Hall of the Art Factory.

Jennifer Koh has commissioned and premiered numerous works for violin. Also on the programme is Franz Schreker’s Chamber Symphony for twenty-three solo instruments<\/em>, which represents Schreker’s signature sparkling and exotic, boldly perfumed sound. <\/p>\n Programme<\/strong>: *** Tickets: 40\u20ac\/ 32\u20ac\/ 20\u20ac + delivery fee (from 1\u20ac per order)<\/p>\n Time: Friday 28.6.2019 20.30 or when the concert in Avanti Hall ends (free entry) Jennifer Koh, violin<\/p>\n Violinist Jennifer Kohi’s<\/strong> evening club and improvisation can be enjoyed after the Friday evening concert in the warmth of the Art Factory with a glass of wine.

Strong vocals, heart-wrenching stories, a raw kantele and groovy percussion – the weaving heartbeat of polyrhythms and strong beat combined with hypnotic melodies create a unique soundscape with just one musician. The concert is free of charge. <\/p>\n Time: Saturday 29.6.2019 at 14.00-16.00, free entry Jennifer Koh, violin<\/p>\n Violinist Jennifer Koh<\/strong> gives intimate mini-concerts in caf\u00e9s and restaurants in downtown Porvoo.

The bar is open and a dance floor has been arranged in the Avanti Hall of the Art Factory. <\/p>\n Anything can be a hop. There has always been hops, long before the Humppa-Veikas. Hops are eternal. According to the Bible, the music was invented by Tubal, the son of Cain, and according to tradition, hops are named after the sound of the tuba. Not only is it one and the same, but it is also full of tuba. <\/p>\n Nothing is sacred to a hop fan, including the hop. Humppavant’s hops are any kind of music, as long as they are played as hops. Kullervo Linna’s legacy is that humming knows no limits to instrumental imagination. Humppa is not a style or a genre of music. Humppa is an attitude. <\/p>\n Humpah is a hot cultural capital that has attracted renowned artists. The cry in the suburban pubs is already: – Satan, now they’re taking our hops away. The hump will not become art, even if a prestigious contemporary music orchestra tackles it with the legitimacy of \u201canarchist-surrealist\u201d humour or \u201ccreative madness\u201d. Humppa will drive anyone crazy, but it keeps its feet firmly on the ground. At least for a few moments. <\/p>\n The festival bus to Helsinki will leave about 15 minutes after the end of the concert.<\/p>\n Tickets: 40\u20ac\/ 32\u20ac\/ 20\u20ac + delivery fee (from 1\u20ac per order)<\/p>\n [ps2id id=”sunnuntai” target=”” \/]<\/p>\n Time: Sunday 30.6.2019 at 13.00 Performers: the musicians of Avant<\/p>\n On Sunday, Tuula Jukola-Nuorteva<\/strong>, a long-time audience engagement professional and music educator, and Liisa Ik\u00e4valko<\/strong>, a glass artist and visual arts teacher, have designed a concert for children where music comes within touching distance of children.<\/p>\n Tickets: 15\u20ac one ticket \/ family tickets (4 persons) 50\u20ac + delivery fee (from 1\u20ac per order)<\/p>\n Time: Sunday 30.6.2019 at 18.00 Baldur Br\u00f6nnimann, conductor As composer Brett Dean read Beethoven’s famous Heiligenstadt Testament, he was struck by the quietly intense soundscape of Beethoven’s imaginary quill pen manically writing on parchment paper. It was from this vision that Dean began to build his work, which he named Testament<\/em>, the composer’s second Beethoven-themed work. Gy\u00f6rgy Ligeti’s folkloristic work Concert Romanesc<\/em> culminates the folk music theme of Suvisoito. Ludwig van Beethoven’s third symphony \u201cEroica\u201d will conclude this summer’s festival. <\/p>\n Programme<\/strong>: Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No 3 in E-flat major op. 55 \u201cEroica\u201d<\/p>\n Allegro con brio (NOTE!
