Satumaa – Musik aus der Heimat des Tango - Deutschland

by Harley Jones
Kimmo Mattila and Aino OjakoskiKimmo Mattila, Akkordeon und Aino Ojakoski, Bratsche Konzerttournee der Deutsch-Finnischen Gesellschaft e.V. vom 17. bis 27. September 2010.

„Satumaa – Musik aus der Heimat des Tango“ – so lautet der vielversprechende Name des Programms des ungewöhnlichen finnischen Duos bestehend aus der jungen Bratschistin Aino Ojakoski und dem Meister des Akkordeons Kimmo Mattila. Beide Musiker stammen aus Ikaalinen, der Heimatstadt finnischer Akkordeon- und Spielmannsmusik und Austragungsort des international bekannten Akkordeonfestivals „Sata-Häme Soi“.

Für alle Zweifler: Finnland ist die Heimat des Tango, zumindest des finnischen Tango, der melancholischen und langsamer getanzten Variante des argentinischen Tangos. Unbestritten ist Finnland jedoch das am Tango begeisterteste Land der Welt – fast jeder kann in Finnland Tango tanzen und tut dies auch in Restaurants und auf Ausflugsschiffen, bei privaten Feiern sowie beim nachmittäglichen After-Work-Tanz, auf Tangofestivals oder bei den großen Tangomärkten, auf denen jedes Jahr der Tangokönig oder die Tangokönigin Finnlands gekrönt werden.

Mit ihrem Programm „Satumaa“, auf deutsch Märchenland, bringen die beiden Meisterinterpreten traditioneller finnischer Tanzmelodien nicht nur den berühmtesten aller finnischen Tangos sondern ein ganzes Tangoprogramm nach Deutschland. Auf der Konzerttournee der Deutsch-Finnischen Gesellschaft e.V. durch 12 Städte präsentiert das zum ersten Mal in Deutschland auftretende Duo neben bekannten Tangomelodien auch Spielmannsmusik und berühmte finnische Schlager- und Filmmusik. Gespielt werden außerdem argentinische Melodien des bekannten Bandeonisten Astor Piazzolla sowie internationale Melodien mit finnischer
Interpretation.

Gegründet wurde das Duo 2007, als anlässlich des Akkordeonfestivals „Sata -Häme Soi“ in Ikaalinen 2007 aus der näheren Umgebung eine kleine aber gute Band
gesucht wurde. „Wegen des fehlenden offiziellen Namens für die Band, nannten wir es spaßeshalber das ‚Duo Sata- Häme Soi – Festivalbüro’“, erzählen die beiden Musiker, die
seitdem regelmäßig als Duo auftraten. Bratsche und Akkordeon sind eine ungewöhnliche Zusammensetzung, die sich aber musikalisch als ausgezeichnet erwies: „Der dunkle und volle Klang der Bratsche gibt dem scharfen Ton des Akkordeons einen guten Kontrast oder auch andersherum. Die Tonfarben dieser zwei Instrumente
verschmelzen nahtlos miteinander.“, führen die Musiker weiter aus.

Konzerttermine:
Freitag, 17.9., 19.30 Uhr Wilhelmshaven, Gaststätte Antonslust
Samstag, 18.9., 18 Uhr Köln, Tersteegerhaus, Köln-Klettenberg, Emmastr. 6

Lars Karlsson and Øivind Farmen Tour Sweden

by Rob Howard
Lars Karlsson and Oivind Farmen
Last week the Swedish diatonic player Lars Karlsson and the Norwegian bayan player Øivind Farmen made a very successful tour of Sweden. Six concerts were performed with a repertoire of great variety, from classical to folk music, with a combination of duos and solos. The music included works like ‘Sonata in A major’ (D. Scarlatti), ‘Mickes idépolska’ (M. Nolervik), ‘Polska efter Byss-Kalle’ (trad.), and a number of the artists’ own works. In the middle of September they go for a new concert tour, this time both in Norway and Sweden.

Lars Karlsson, from a folk music background, was Nordic Diatonic Champion in 1993, and active as both a player and a composer. Øivind Farmen is classically trained, and his contest successes most notably include winning the 1996 Trophée Mondiale in Faro, Portugal.
