About
Ars Musica presents NORDIC BREATHS at La Tricoterie, Sint-Gillis, on Wednesday 2 December 2026 at 20:00. The programme includes cello and piano sonatas by Rautavaara, Hillborg and a new work by Tõnu Kõrvits.
What to expect
The concert opens with Einojuhani Rautavaara's First Sonata for cello and piano (1972), quiet and deep at first and then broader and more fiery.
Anders Hillborg's Duo has not been heard yet: the planned premiere in Carnegie Hall and two later attempts fell through when a performer cancelled.
Pierre Fontenelle and Ninon Hannecart-Segal are set to play, and a brand-new Sonata for cello and piano by Tõnu Kõrvits has its creation.
- Rautavaara: First Sonata for cello and piano (1972)
- Anders Hillborg: Duo
- Tõnu Kõrvits: new Sonata for cello and piano
