Europallet
A true rarity in the concert comes from Krzysztof Kieślowski’s 1990s hit film Blue, whose plot revolves around a hymn for the unification of Europe. The work is performed in Greek – so we’ll get a stamp from that country in our imaginary festival passport as well. The closing piece, Ravel’s String Quartet, is among the finest works in the repertoire. We are delighted to have our artistic director Atte Kilpeläinen’s own ensemble, Meta4, perform it.
