Mirrorings by Piano and String Quartet

The solo piano and the string quartet – two key configurations for performing Western music – mirror one another at this concert. In the programme, Modernist classical pieces composed by Arnold Schönberg and Bela Bartók in the 1920s mirror the music written by present-day Finnish composers Lauri Kilpiö and Outi Tarkiainen. The Austrian-born Schönberg and the Hungarian Bartók also mirror one another. Similarly, Kilpiö from Helsinki and Tarkiainen from Utsjoki mirror not only each other, but also the classics of Central Europe.
