Icelandic Anna Thorvaldsdottir is this season's composer-in-residence. Our Artistic Leadership Team opens the doors to an inspiring autumn of concerts.

Now we are in luck! Music lovers in Helsinki do not have to travel to New York, Berlin or Paris to hear one of the most interesting composers of our time, as her music can now be heard being performed live in our own hometown concert hall. Aeriality has become the calling card of Anna Thorvaldsdottir. “A work I would go a long way to hear.” (Ateş Orga, Classical Source)

Johannes Brahms' Second Symphony has been in the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra’s repertoire for over a hundred years. How does the sunniest of Brahms’ symphonies sound when experienced and interpreted jointly by the musicians of the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra and chief conductor Jukka-Pekka Saraste?
