Summer concert in Ringkøbing Church: Jochen Brusch and Finn Elias Svit
Violinist Jochen Brusch and guitarist Finn Elias Svit visit Ringkøbing Church. The programme is a tribute to the Nordic summer mood with its bright nights and its sadness and longing for the all too short duration of summer. The music is by Fini Henriques, Carl Nielsen and H.C. Lumbye, among others. Lumbye and a festive and virtuoso violin sonata by Vivaldi.
