Springtime enters the concert hall in Risto-Matti Marin's solo piano recital! Juho Miettinen's second piano sonata is based on the voices of different species of birds from Northern Savonia. Matthew Whittall's "Wine-dark Sea V" evokes impressions of the waves of Mediterranean Sea and his "Song of the Universal" gives a voice to the entire universe. On the second half Einari Marvia's variations on an Ostrobothnian folk song, and his grand piano sonata wrap the audience into Finnish romantic glow.
