University of the Arts Helsinki - SIBELIUS ACADEMY presents:

Polska Travels: Finland - Folk music for a Baroque orchestra


What connects the old musical histories of France, Poland, Germany, and ultimately Finland? Polska, of course!

"Polska travels" is a journey on the wings of the most popular Nordic folk dance tune, a programme that explores its arrival on Finnish shores in Baroque times and attempts its reinvention.
The authenticity of Baroque strings meets the groove of foot-tapping dances, blended and transformed into arrangements and compositions which pay a tribute to the giant stature of Baroque composers on one side and the inextinguishable repertoire of the distinctive Finnish folklore on the other, the fruit of Krishna Nagaraja's first year of Doctoral Research.
