Mussorgsky's Khovanshchina was performed at the Baltic Sea Festival in Sweden right after its premiere at the Helsinki Festival. You can now listen to the entire piece as a recording – highly recommended! 🎶 @BalticSeaFest

What an amazing two weeks it’s been – first, rehearsals in London, followed by a performance at the @bbcproms, and a second performance at the @helsinkifest in @Musiikkitalo! Thank you so much to @AnuKomsi, @oramsa, @RCMLondon, @Taideyliopisto and many others!
BASSO! This epic piece was part of last week's Helsinki Art Festival, directed for the last time by @moia. Lauri Porra created a piece for dozens of bass players, a choir, drums, and supporting artists, which reminded me of Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells.

Musiikkitalon uudet urut soi sisuksissa saakka🤩 Urkuri Iveta Apkalna suoriutuu virtuoosimaisesti Philip Glassin sykkivästä minimalismista Bachin ikoniseen barokkiin. #Helsinkifestival kerää ihmiset yhteisen elämyksen äärelle, sitä tässä maailmassa tarvitaan. Eikö, @pekkasauri 🥰
