About the Artist

For oss som nyter konsertene som publikum, kan det være vanskelig å forstå hvor spesielt Risør er for artistene. Det er ikke så mange kammermusikkfestivaler som oss, hvor artistene er samlet i en uke, og hvor man spiller så mye forskjellig, med så mange nye artister, og stykker som ikke nødvendigvis ligger lengst frem i pannebrasken. Det er en intenst uke, og det krever en spesiell type artist.

Jan er derfor perfekt for oss. Blandingen av å være en fiolinvirtuos fra et av klassisk musikkens høyborger, Finland, men også den finske stoiske roen og noen års erfaring, gjør at han er med å sikre kvalitet og samhold gjennom uka.

Det skal ikke undervurderes, og når han att på til viser seg
