Sibbe Live!: Viuluakatemia Aura – On the Way to the Competition

Viuluakatemia Aura (The Violin Academy Aura) was founded in the summer of 2024 to promote and develop the purposeful study of violin playing, mainly in Southwest Finland. Viuluakatemia Aura offers high-quality supplementary teaching to support basic music education, master classes, ensemble playing, peer learning and community promotion in a supportive and inspiring environment.

Viuluakatemia Aura’s young violinists are children and young people between the ages of 8 and 20 who are dedicated to studying the violin.

In this concert, Viuluakatemia Aura’s violinists will perform their programs for the national Juhani Heinonen competition in Jyväskylä and the international Young Musician competition in Tallinn in the spring season of 2025.

The evening’s program includes Telemann’s fantasies for solo violin, the first parts of Bériot’s and Wieniawski’s romantic violin concertos, virtuoso works by Kreisler and Sarasate, two works by a contemporary Estonian composer, and Finnish violin music.
