The Finnish-born Jewish composer Moses Pergament has been strangely forgotten in the music world. Agora Music Collective is now initiating both concert projects and recordings to highlight this neglected part of the music history. 

Pergament was originally trained as a violinist, and this concert is likely the first time that his complete works for violin and piano are performed in Finland. Duo Silén-Malmgren are currently recording a CD with these works, which will be released by Toccata Classics in the nearest year.

 

Program:

- Chanson triste (1915)
- Menuett (1916)
- Canzonetta (1915)
- Romans (1914)
- Sonata for violin and piano (1918-1920)

and perhaps other surprises...
