 Renowned Finnish accordionist Mika Väyrynen will begin his busy summer concert season performing at several prestigious music festivals. Mika will appear at the famed Naantali Music Festival when he presents concerts on June 14th and 16th. Mika will present music by Gubaidulina and Piazzolla, when he performs chamber music works with other festival artists.The Naantali Music Festival was founded by Professor Arto Noras, who celebrates his 70th birthday this year. This year marks the fifth time that Mika has had the privilege of being chosen to appear, and will perform along side Arto Noras, Ralf Gothoni, Elisabeth Leonskaja, The English Chamber Orchestra, Okko Kamu, Frans Helmerson, Michel Lethiec and many other world famous artists. Throughout its history, the Naantali Music Festival has become known for its legendary standard and high profile of artists, all personally chosen by founder Professor Noras. The President of Finland Sauli Niinistö and his wife Jenni Haukio will attend the Naantali Music Festival, an annual attendance coinciding with his summer villa being there. Mika has twice performed for former President Tarja Halonen in concerts at the Naantali Music Festival. Mika has recently completed two new CD recordings, including one solo CD of music by Bach and another CD of accordion duo with the Spanish accordionist Angel Luis Castano. Both CDs will be released later this year. For more information, please visit www.accordions.com/mika |
