Three eras, three strong composers – one intense evening of chamber music. Violinist Annemarie Åström, cellist Ulla Lampela, and pianist Tiina Karakorpi invite listeners into the expressive world of the piano trio, where tradition and contemporary music engage in dialogue.
Robert Schumann’s first piano trio in D minor pulsates with romantic passion, poetry, and restless energy. Helvi Leiviskä’s Impromptu for violin and piano and Cantabile for cello and piano bring out the deep thought and inner tension of Finnish modernism. Harri Wessman’s Prelude and Sicilienne for piano trio offers a light, refreshing pause between darker and deeper waters. The concert concludes with Matthew Whittall’s work Where the rain ends begins the sky…, which opens a contemporary soundscape for the listener – sensitive, contemplative and brightly expansive.
This concert is a journey into the timeless questions of music and ever-renewing expression, as well as an experiential whole for chamber music lovers and curious listeners.
Please note the following:
The location of the concert hall has changed. The new location is on the 5th floor of the Factory building at Art House Turku. All concerts will now begin at 6 p.m. instead of 7 p.m.
The capacity of the new hall is significantly smaller. Therefore, we ask all participants to register for the concert in advance so that we can ensure that there is enough room for everyone who wants to attend. You can register via the link above or at heli.koskinen@tmj.fi.
