Description was written before the event

The concert idea originated from an initiative by a resident of the Neuroliitto service home Merenpisara and grew into a shared musical evening whose proceeds support research into neurological diseases through Neuroliitto and the Movement Disorders Association.

The programme features W.A. Mozart's Clarinet Quintet, excerpts from Giacomo Puccini's opera Tosca arranged for string quartet, and music by Oskar Merikanto performed by baritone Riku Salminen and pianist Jussi Miilunpalo. The evening concludes with Sofia Volt's composition Pisaroita, whose lyrics were written by residents of Merenpisara.

Performing on stage are Riku Salminen (baritone), Jussi Miilunpalo (piano), Kati Paajanen (violin), Kaisa Kallinen (violin), Olli Kilpiö (viola), Tuulia Ylönen (clarinet) and Jussi Viitala (cello). The concert is under the patronage of opera singer Jaakko Ryhänen.

Tickets 10/20 € from the ticket office. Viikin kirkko, 30.8.2026 18.00-19.00.
