Guitar Virtuoso Timo Korhonen: Mazurka in Sunlight — Espan lava, Helsinki

On Espa's stage, we journey between two landscapes: the lyrical expressiveness of Spain and the pulsing life of Brazil.

In Tárrega's small melodies, a whisper and the sway of dance can be the same thing - a fleeting moment that lingers in memory. Villa-Lobos, meanwhile, weaves together city streets with a quiet inner song: the immediate rhythm of Chôros sits alongside the drama and wit of the preludes.
