The Argentine composer and guitarist Jorge Cardoso visited Finland as part of a tour commemorating his 50 years of musical activity. This time Cardoso hosted concerts in Kirkkonummi (Sunday, September 29) and Hyvinkää (Thursday, October 1), which were attended by a large audience particularly highlighted by young guitar lovers and students. Cardoso was accompanied by well-known Finnish guitarists Hildén and Janne Pentti Lehtinen, who are both very familiar with the folk music of Argentina. One of the highlights of Cardoso's visit was his performance as a guest artist at the Fall Concert of the Hyvinkää Orchestra, which joined him playing his "Concierto Guarani".
