Mother’s Day Concert
Mendelssohn's Double Concerto in D Minor, Feat. Duo Gylling
Concert & Video Production
Project Overview
Proposed by the celebrated guest soloists from the USA and Finland, Dhyani and Kristoffer Gylling (Duo Gylling), who have captivated audiences across Europe, Oulunsalo Ensemble organized a Mother’s Day Concert in Oulu Cathedral on May 5, 2023. The centerpiece of the event was Felix Mendelssohn’s Double Concerto in D Minor (MWV O4), performed by Duo Gylling as soloists.
The program also featured orchestral works by Friedrich Burgmüller, Johann Schmelzer, and Hjalmar Backman. Guest artists included baritone Matteus Jämsä and conductor-trumpeter Jaakko Jauhiainen. The young fiddler group Oulunsalon Näppärit, led by Sinikka Ala-Leppilampi, brought traditional Ostrobothnian folk tunes to the stage, adding a delightful touch to the concert.
Services Involved
Dhyani & Kristoffer Gylling
Violin-Piano Duo
We have had very good experiences working with Eero Karvonen as a sound engineer and producer. He is very efficient and a wonderful person to collaborate with!
My Role & Contributions
I captured the performance and created a high-quality audiovisual series, released as multiple videos on YouTube. Later on, I also created dozens of YouTube Shorts from the material to showcase the performances.
