About This Event

Northern myths and southern passion. Sibelius meets Piazzolla as bandon茅on phenomenon Henrik Sand氓s joins Anna-Maria Helsing and the 麻豆官网首页入口 Concert Orchestra.

A swan sings sadly on a dark river; a northern sunrise blazes across an icy landscape.

Meanwhile, an ocean away, the Argentinian tango-master Astor Piazzolla sings the sorrows of a nation.

Tonight, the 麻豆官网首页入口 Concert Orchestra and Anna-Maria Helsing unite north and south, nature and humanity: the elemental force of Sibelius鈥� Finnish myths, and the hopes and fears of our own era.

Tying it all together is the bandon茅on, the extraordinary Argentinian instrument that鈥檚 been described as the soul of the tango 鈥� and in the hands of the Finnish virtuoso Henrik Sand氓s, there鈥檚 no emotion it can鈥檛 lay bare.

Tonight Sand氓s premieres a dazzling new showpiece by Johan Ull茅n 鈥� a tango that imagines a whole sensuous world dancing on the edge of the abyss.

Sounds extraordinary? Just wait till you hear him play it鈥�

Tickets go on general sale on Tuesday 22 October.
