This concert is dedicated to our beloved neighbouring country, Sweden. The performance, featuring Vuokko Hovatta, includes composed poems in both Finnish and Swedish.

For me, this has been an exciting project, as I’ve managed to include several of my own compositions, masterfully arranged for string quartet by Jussi Lampela. The poems are by Claes Andersson, Jarl Hemmer, Riina Katajavuori, Tua Forsström, and Vuokko Hovatta. This “Finnkampen” ends in a double victory – both languages are equally important! Go Finland! Heja Sweden!
