Soie

Born in 1970, Lotta Wennäkoski's rich and colorful works often incorporate unconventional playing techniques and noise. In recent years her expressive range has become gradually broader, deeper and more powerful. Soie, a Finnish Radio Symphony commission, is a concertante work for flute and orchestra in three movements. The soloist, Kersten McCall, is the Royal Concertgebouw's principal flutist. A Tapiola Sinfonietta commission, Hava had it's premiere at the orchestra's 20th anniversary concert. Amor Omnia, a 90 min. Silent film score, is Wennäkoski's most extensive work to date.
