Marzi Nyman: Electric Guitar Concerto, world premiere

Multi-instrumentalist, composer and all-around artist Marzi Nyman, long-standing Artistic Partner of the Tapiola Sinfonietta and an audience favourite, presents a new concerto written for his favourite orchestra, featuring a solo instrument extremely rare in the classical repertoire: the electric guitar. In recent years, Marzi has been moving into the realm of art music with the orchestra, and the new Concerto takes it up a notch. Marzi is a skilled orchestrator and a virtuoso on his own instrument, which raises great expectations for this new work – but we must also expect the unexpected! The Concerto is programmed, appropriately, in the Indie series. What else is on the programme? That must remain a secret for time being, but we can guarantee you need to be there.
Afterparty in the foyer following the concert.
