TREMBLING EARTH Season Concert Thu 15.10.2026 at 6:30 PM Oulu Music Centre Madetoja Hall André de Ridder, conductor Anastasia Kobekina, cello Ensemble Recherche Soma Ensemble Cassiopeia Suvi Timm and Elina Kärki Choir Master Oulu Sinfonia Concert program: Mirela Ivicevic: Neon Aeon (Finnish premiere) Bryce Dessner: Trembling Earth (Finnish premiere) --- Ellen Reid: Earth Between Oceans (Finnish premiere) Tectonic plates rumble and the bedrock whispers in the concert that is part of the Ostrobothnian Contemporary Music Festival. The American composer Ellen Reid's new work Earth Between Oceans races across the U.S. coastline. Combining choir, orchestra and field recordings, the piece is driven by the power of the four classical elements, leaving an unavoidable question lingering in the air: how much longer can this continue? Bryce Dessner, guitarist of The National and composer, has crafted concertos for the world's greatest soloists. His Trembling Earth, performed in London, Sydney and Berlin, was born for the uniquely poetic expressiveness of cellist Anastasia Kobekina. The lyrical, at times haunting dialogue between cello and orchestra is a touching tribute to Mother Nature's boundless resilience. Croatian composer Mirela Ivi?evi? hammers at our very notions of music with her art: it snarls, screams, curses and laments. Her latest work remains under wraps, but all signs suggest a shock treatment for ears well-seasoned in tradition. Head start at Restaurant Preludi at 18.00. Discussion of the forthcoming concert. Oulu is the European Capital of Culture in 2026. Trembling Earth is part of the Oulu2026 cultural programme and the cultural climate change initiative. *** Duration about 1 h 55 min (incl. intermission) Tickets 32 € normal / 27 € pensioner / 19 € student, unemployed, child (3--17 yrs) Free entry to the concert for Kaikukortti holders (limited amount, must be purchased in advance from Oulu10 service point).
