The pumpkin carriage is flying, the glass shoe finds its owner, and evil gets its reward. The story in Sergei Prokofiev's Cinderella ballet is told to the tune of a suite compiled by Dima Slobodeniuk. Trumpeter Håkan Hardenberger fearlessly enters the labyrinth in Jörg Widmann's trumpet concerto. The journey towards paradise passes through the lush sound of a giant orchestra – the five-piece percussion section is not only to be heard but also seen!
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.
