Nora Niskanen, clarinet
Kari Olamaa, violin
Teija Kivinen, violin
Tiila Kangas, viola
Jaakko Rajamäki, cello
“It has long been my dream to perform Brahms' clarinet quintet. It has travelled with me, the caressing sound of the clarinet comforting me in times of trouble and, at other moments, stirring up great happiness in me. It seemed appropriate to name the concert Dreams, since now I get to make this dream come true.”
- Teija Kivinen, artistic designer of the concert.

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.
