HPO flutist Jenny Villanen’s bands 2Clazz! and 4Clazz! love to play a wide variety of music. Villanen’s and Heli Siekkinen’s interpretations of Claude Bolling’s jazz suites received a rapturous reception at a previous Encounters Club, and this time the HPO musicians are joined by pianist Marko Hilpo.

The popular Encounters Club is an arena for creative ideas and surprising encounters with performances by the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra’s musicians and friends.
The Encounters Club is open to all and free of charge, and it takes place on Fridays around once a month in the main foyer of the Helsinki Music Centre.
Free admission – welcome! The programme begins at 9pm after the evening’s concert, and the café is open until 10:30pm.
Yes, but only before or after the concert. During the concert we just want you to enjoy the music. This way you won’t disturb the musicians or other audience members.
Only the orchestra has a dress code. You can dress as you like.
You can give the ticket to a friend or donate it to a music student by calling 09-3102 2700 or sending an e-mail to helsinki.philharmonic@hel.fi by 3pm on the day of the concert.
