Explore the luminous sound-world of 20th-century Finnish music with violinist Linda Hedlund and La Tempesta Orchestra under József Hárs. This captivating programme spans mysticism, modernism and cinematic charm, featuring concertante works by Selim Palmgren, Aarre Merikanto, Väinö Raiti, Nils-Eric Fougstedt, Väinö Haapalainen and even Einar Englund’s enchanting film score written under a pseudonym. Internationally acclaimed soloist Linda Hedlund brings dazzling technique and profound emotional depth to these national treasures, many recorded for the first time. Following her acclaimed lighter companion album Evening Dusk Serenade (8.579095), this new release reveals the richer, darker soul of Finnish romanticism and experimentation.
