Chamber Concert: A Musical Tapestry

Step into the rich sonic world of A Musical Tapestry, the first chamber concert of Oulu Sinfonia’s Autumn 2025 chamber music season. Woven with threads of lyricism, rhythm, and color, this program invites you to experience music as a living, breathing fabric—where tradition meets innovation and intimacy meets grandeur.

We begin with George Enescu’s Légende, a hauntingly beautiful work for trumpet and piano that conjures the spirit of Romanian folklore through impressionistic hues and soulful phrasing.

Next, Maurice Ravel’s Violin Sonata No. 2 offers a refined interplay of French elegance and American jazz. Its iconic movement Blues pulses with smoky charm, while the outer movements shimmer with clarity and grace.

Finally, Eric Ewazen’s Trio for Trumpet, Violin, and Piano brings the evening to a stirring close. With sweeping melodies and cinematic textures, this contemporary gem celebrates the expressive power of chamber music in bold, resonant tones.
