Veiled Echoes

21 July | 16.00

Møn Summer Concert's 6th edition opens with an intimate program for harp, flute and viola.

The festival continues its focus on works and composers with less attention to today's scenes. This is also done through an ensemble that is very rarely allowed to make up an entire concert by itself.

Prof. Alena Walentin is in concert with her colleague and viola player Prof. Patrick Jüdt from Kunstakademie Bern and Anne Denholm, who is solo harpist in the BBC Symphony Orchestra.
