FOLKFONIAA
In cooperation with Seinäjoki City Orchestra.
Vasa and Seinäjoki City Orchestras
cond. Janne Nisonen
sol. Frigg
The folk music group Frigg is one of the most internationally recognized names in Finland’s music scene, regardless of genre. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the group is known from Kaustinen to Borneo, America, and Japan. Among the tightly knit violinists, tradition and modernity meet, while the rhythm section pulses with the vitality of an Ostrobothnian field. Conductor Janne Nisonen, himself a master violinist and a folk music veteran, unites Frigg and the city orchestras into a cohesive whole.
