Classic musical hits and jazz frenzy! Echoes of Broadway is jazz singer Elena Mîndru's doctoral concert, in which Broadway classics come to life as interpreted by a large jazz orchestra. For Mîndru, who is completing her doctoral degree in Arts at the Sibelius Academy, the concert with the UMO Helsinki Jazz Orchestra is the final artistic component of her degree.

In this concert, beloved Broadway classics are brought to life as new big band arrangements by Artturi Rönkä and Sampo Kasurinen. The conductor is Ville Vannemaa, the new chief conductor of the UMO Helsinki Jazz Orchestra.

Duration approx. 75 min, no intermission.
