Description
Music that goes to the limits of the human experience: the Baroque ensemble B’Rock and the Dutch soprano Olivia Vermeulen search for the sound of life and death. The Finnish jazz guitarist and composer Kalle Kalima responds to the timeless lamentation music of the 17th century with his own unique musical language.
