Roberts Balanas, electric violin

Electric violinist Roberts Balanas arrives in Kokkola with a unique, genre-defying programme that journeys from Bach to the minimalism of Reich, from Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody to the world premiere of a brand-new work by electronic music producer Jabeau, and back again. Just how far can the Ostrobothnian Chamber Orchestra stretch alongside this extraordinary virtuoso?

The atmospheric concert continues with a special afterparty at Restaurant Dolce, where guests can enjoy wine, refreshments and an open jam session for all. This is an evening not to be missed!
