PROGRAM

The trio Antti Sarpila, Seppo Hovi and Hannu Rantanen with swing and with their charming singer Angelika Klas, who is known for her versatility, have conjured up a sparkling and unforgettable program with the most beautiful tune classics. Decades change in the twinkling of stars, accompanied by the colourful and entertaining stories by the legend Finnish artist, Seppo Hovi.

The Star dust concert is inspired and focused around Hoagy Carmichael's legendary jazz classic Stardust. This song enchants listeners with its brooding and intimate melody and captivating intimate atmosphere. It also encapsulates the essence of this concert; a particularly versatile program that moves from virtuosically captivating opera and operetta tunes to evergreens, tango and legendary jazz classics interpreted as chamber music.
