As the culmination of October, the Joensuu City Orchestra offers cosmic movement and a heavenly symphony.
The evening’s program will gently transport the listener to the sounds of space and heaven. Among others, soprano Marjukka Tepponen, winner of the Timo Mustakallio singing competition, will shine as a soloist in Richard Strauss’ impressive Vier letzte Lieder series .
Conductor Jukka Untamala leads the orchestra in Missy Mazzolini’s space-themed Symphony (For Orbiting Spheres), filling the Carelia Hall with images of cosmic movement. The concert culminates in Jean Sibelius’ enchanting Symphony No. 3, which takes the listener to the bright and celestial C major.
