Matthew Halls, conductor
Tuuli Takala, soprano

Claude Debussy: La Mer (The Sea)
Jean Sibelius: Luonnotar
Ralph Vaughan Williams: Symphony No. 3, “Pastoral”

Chief conductor Matthew Halls leads three works where humanity, nature, and human character resonate in harmony. Claude Debussy reached an international peak with La Mer, a vivid orchestral vision that sweeps the listener away like a tidal wave. The devastation of the First World War left permanent scars on Ralph Vaughan Williams’ soul. In response, he created the Pastoral Symphony, proclaiming eternal peace with timeless beauty.

Season series concert, Pre-concert talk at 6 PM

The concert lasts about two hours. You can find the exact duration and more information on the orchestra’s website: www.tamperefilharmonia.fi/en/
