EST 🇪🇪Kontsert „Hõbeallikas“ toob lavale haruldase kõlakoosluse – kromaatiline kannel koos oreli ja marimbaga. See on eriline muusikaelamus, mida just sageli Eestis kuulda ei saa.
Ella Maidre on eesti kandlemängija ja pedagoog, kes õpetab Vanalinna Hariduskolleegiumis ning juhendab seal ansamblit Keelte Kodu. Lisaks tegutseb ta kooslustes Eesti Keeled ja Tuulekandled. Kaspar Ernesaks on eesti marimbamängija ja -õpetaja.
Duo Insolitum alustas tegevust 2022. aastal. Debüüt toimus Klaipėda rahvusvahelisel kandlefestivalil, kus kõlas Karin Tuule spetsiaalselt duole loodud teos „Mõtisklus kandlele ja marimbale“. Ansambli omanäoline kõlapilt on toonud tellimusi ka heliloojatelt Merlylin Jaeski, Madli-Marje Sink ja Katri Rebane.
Hedi Viisma on Eestis sündinud kandlemängija, kes tegutseb solisti ja kammermuusikuna Soomes. Ta mängib kandletrios Didalli ning kandle–tšello duos Peili koos Seeli Toivio-ga. James D. Hicks on Ameerika kontsertorganist, kes elab ja töötab New Jersey osariigis Califonias.
Viisma ja Hicksi koostöö sai alguse Toivo Elovaara teosest „Hymni“ kandlele ja orelile. Tänaseks on duo tellinud ja salvestanud mitmeid originaalteoseid ning esinenud arvukatel kontsertidel ja orelifestivalidel. Sageli liitub nendega ka viiuldaja Kaidi Ugandi, kellega on esitatud spetsiaalselt kandle-oreli-viiuli koosseisule loodud teoseid.
Kontsert kuulub 16.–18. oktoobril 2026 Pärnus toimuva XVI Rahvusvahelise Kandlefestivali ja VI Väikekandlefestivali ametlikku programmi.
🎟️ Sissepääs festivalipassiga, mis on saadaval Fientas. Soovi korral on võimalik osta ka üksikpilet kohapeal sularahas. Kontserdi piletihind kohapeal on 25 € / 20 €.

The concert “Hõbeallikas” (Silver Spring) presents a rare sonic combination on stage – chromatic kannel with organ and marimba. It is a unique musical experience that is seldom heard in Estonia.
Ella Maidre is an Estonian kannel player and teacher who teaches at Vanalinna Hariduskolleegium and directs the ensemble Keelte Kodu there. She also performs with the ensembles Eesti Keeled and Tuulekandled. Kaspar Ernesaks is an Estonian marimba player and teacher.
Duo Insolitum was founded in 2022. Their debut took place at the International Kannel Festival in Klaipėda, where Karin Tuul’s work “Mõtisklus kandlele ja marimbale” (Meditation for Kannel and Marimba), written especially for the duo, was premiered. The ensemble’s distinctive sound has also inspired commissions from Estonian composers Merlylin Jaeski, Madli-Marje Sink, and Katri Rebane.
Hedi Viisma is an Estonian-born kannel player active as a soloist and chamber musician in Finland. She performs in the kannel trio Didalli and in the kannel–cello duo Peili with Seeli Toivio. James D. Hicks is an American concert organist living and working in New Jersey.
The collaboration between Viisma and Hicks began with Toivo Elovaara’s work “Hymni” for kannel and organ. Since then, the duo has commissioned and recorded several original works and has performed at numerous concerts and organ festivals. They are often joined by violinist Kaidi Ugandi, with whom they have presented works specially written for the kannel–organ–violin trio.
The concert is part of the official programme of the XVI International Kannel Festival and the VI Small Kannel Festival, taking place in Pärnu on October 16–18, 2026.
