Composer Aulis Sallinen celebrated his 90th birthday in April. The programme for this Encounters Club program includes the two of his key chamber music works from different periods: his early, lyrically meditative 4th string quartet “Quiet Songs” and his oboe quintet “Echoes from a Play”, in which one can hear echoes from his opera “The Palace”.
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.
