She will perform a programme of works for viola and electronics by contemporary composers, together with the Mixtur Festival.Nisbeth, winner of the Nordic Soloist Prize, is one of the most prominent emerging soloists on the international classical music scene. With a particular focus on new creation, Nisbeth presents a programme of six world premieres in which the instrumental potential of the viola is put to the service of new-creation music.
