The album, May Monday, began its life with a meeting at Halkaerkro Festival in Denmark in1998, and in order to celebrate 25 years of friendship and music, this iconic duo are touring Orkney and Ireland in September 2024. What makes Karen and Timo so special is their ability to marry their differing musical roots and styles exquisitely – reels and polkas weave effortlessly between tangos and airs which are beautifully crafted to present timeless extraordinary music. Both are superb teachers and composers in their own right. Timo has written and performed music at the 2019 UK BBC Proms, while his larger orchestral pieces have been premiered as far afield as Australia.
