Musica Nova @Helsinki
15.February | 16:00
Helsinki Chamber Choir was to have given the world premiere of a new work, INNEN, by Vito Žuraj in September 2020, but the pandemic changed the plans. It is now to be heard for the first time, nearly five years later. To a libretto commissioned from Händl Klaus, the work examines the unfiltered creativity of a disabled person with reference to Monet the painter and his gradual loss of sight. The first joint concert by the Helsinki Chamber Choir and the Freiburg-based Ensemble Recherche will also feature a virtuoso solo work for female voice and instrumental ensemble by Sweden’s Malin Bång and works by Lotta Wennäkoski, Perttu Haapanen and Franck Bedrossian.
With works by
Malin Bång, Franck Bedrossian, Perttu Haapanen, Lotta Wennäkoski and Vito Zuraj
