Story
Seasonal concerts of choral music
Seasonal concerts of choral music serve our choral culture in a new way, performed by top choirs. In the second season of the history of seasonal concerts in 2023-2024, a total of 30 versatile choir concerts will be held. Every Thursday, Helsinki's main concert venues are filled with choral music from classics to the latest works, from pop music to modernism, from national romanticism to choral drama.
The choirs and music styles change every week, but when you come to the seasonal concerts of the Choir, you know you're getting a quality experience. The performance features the most famous and interesting choirs in the capital region from all choir forms; every season with new software. Each concert is preceded by a presentation of works of about half an hour.
Mission
The choral music season concerts are a concert series founded together by the choirs of the capital region. The goal is to introduce the public to high-level, versatile choral music and offer those interested in choral music a new kind of regular cultural activity.
