He exists, you know

At the Finnish Institute, French and Finnish chamber music meets the intense correspondence between Siri Derkert and Valle Rosenberg – two visionary artistic souls who, in their lives and letters, sought expression, freedom, and connection. Actors Görel Crona and Johan Fagerrud give voice to their burning words – as striking today as they were then. Musicians Henrik Naimark Meyers, Astrid Lindell, and Thomas Rudberg bring Sibelius’s lyrical miniatures and Ravel’s glowing piano trio to life.
