Väliaika
Leevi Madetoja wrote the delightful ‘lyric suite’ commissioned by the Kalevala society, to celebrate the national Kalevala day. From these Finnish sceneries the concert continues with a sonata by Olli Mustonen that brings us both depth and playfulness. The concerts ends with the great cello-piano sonata by Dmitri Shostakovich. It was composed just before Stalin forbid many compositions to be performed, as he didn’t find them nationalistic enough.
