Intimate Voices, Incidental Music for two clowns and string quartet (2025, premier)

The performance centres around Jean Sibelius’s most famous chamber music work,
the String Quartet in D minor ‘Voces intimae’. At the time of composing ‘Voces intimae’,
Sibelius had been diagnosed with a throat tumour, and this greatly influenced his
compositional process. Death and the fears associated with it form a key framework for any
interpretation of ‘Voces intimae’, providing the piece with its central thematic context. This
performance is in Finnish and will be subtitled in English.

The duration of the concert is about two hours. There is an intermission.
