Netherlands host IYA2009 concerts
14 December 2009
An IYA2009-themed concert given in September together with the Grieg Pianoduo was a huge success. The world premier of Sisask's "Sombrero Galaxy" was presented, together with other works by him and by Schubert, for a sold out hall in Groningen, in the Netherlands. The composer attended, as well as the ambassador of Estonia.
Recently a symphony orchestra played Mozart's last symphony, the Jupiter-symphony, free, for all interested. IYA2009 supporter Peter Barthel interviewed the conductor in an observatory dome, right before the concert. All was recorded and broadcasted over internet-TV, throughout Holland.
