Premiere of Cecilia Damström's "Information" in Tammerfors
Cecilia Damström's orchestral work Information premieres in Tampere Hall on Friday 29 November. The work wants to shed light on the information society we live in today, where disinformation and misinformation also abound.
Cecilia Damström has been inspired, among other things, by the book "Putin's Troll" by Jessikka Aro, who will also take part in the composer conversation before the concert.
"When I read Jessikka Aro's book Putin's Trolls and Naomi Klein's book " Doppelgänger: a journey through the mirror world" I realized how disinformation is used to create division among people... It came as a surprise to me how some countries use hundreds of millions of dollars per year for the spread of misinformation. That's why I wanted to write this piece; to raise awareness about the world we live in," says Cecilia.
The Tampere Philharmonic premieres the work under the direction of Matthew Halls.
