JOY OF LIFE
13.6.2025 @ 19:00 - 21:00
We are living in the most comfortable time in history, yet we still don’t know how to enjoy it. Have we forgotten the art of celebration? This is the question Iiro Rantala asks in his double concerto Joy of Life, which is filled with virtuosity and playful energy for orchestra, violin, and piano. Beethoven also displays a childlike sense of mischief in his own way; his Eighth Symphony’s playful repertoire includes self-irony, parody, and exaggeration, all presented with a serious face. Known for its virtuosic expressiveness, the Tapiola Sinfonietta makes its much-anticipated return to Naantali after a 20-year hiatus.
