Jazz Finland Live

The female choir Naiskuoro KYN, founded in 1981, has always taken an ambitious and creative approach to music.

Led by Kaija Viitasalo, KYN has aimed to renew the choir scene and break down musical barriers. The Jubilee Concert KYN 35 presents the choir's diverse repertoire of folk songs, jazz and ethnic jazz, with music by Jukka Linkola and Anna-Mari Kähärä among others. Concert includes musicians who have cooperated with KYN: Johanna Försti, Mikko Hassinen, Mirja Mäkelä, Jukka Perko, Annaliisa Pillak and The Polytech Choir.

Tickets: 20/15e, support ticket 35e (incl. glass of sparkling wine and best seats) from choir members and Savoy, 22,50/17,50/37,50e from Lippupalvelu
