Voices from Finland
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]In this remarkable choral symphony, the young Sibelius and the London Philharmonic Orchestra retell Finland’s most ancient poem, the Kalevala.

So gather round as Robin Ticciati, a full chorus and two star singers retell the story tonight.
