Circling Scandinavia

April 27, 2013 7:30 pm
With a huge wealth of exciting new music coming out of Scandanavia, Land’s End wanted to bring some of that rich musical sound world to Calgary. A work by the celebrated Finnish female composer, Kaija Saariaho, displays an array of exquisite sonorities, and is programmed alongside Bent Sorenson’s Phantasmagoria, an innovative work for piano trio performed by our core ensemble members.

This concert is sure to be a feature for both the ears and eyes! The Scandinavian soundscape is interspersed between works of Canadian origin, creating, what can only be described as, a Canadian- Scandinavia Sandwich!
