Final Concert Engegård Quartet, Maxwell Quartet, Olli Mustonen & Naomi Shaham

Two well-kept secrets in the spotlight

They shine in an original work: the First nonet by Finnish composer and pianist Olli Mustonen. This original mind performs his own Piano Quintet with the Engegård and Milhaud’s La création du monde in an arrangement for the same instrumentation.

Olli Mustonen’s extraordinary musicality cannot be praised enough. As a composer, he treads his own path, writing in a contemporary idiom on which there is no stamp. The pianist Mustonen leaves no listener unmoved; his eccentric, human playing and his great stage presence make a concert a true experience.
