Come and sing with a choir one thousand strong! Choral enthusiasts come together to celebrate the 50th birthday of the Tampere Vocal Music Festival in the only appropriate way – by singing together. All the Artistic Directors of the festival over the years have been invited to lead the singing. Each has chosen a favourite in their respective genres to conduct.

The Tampere Vocal Music Festival is a five-day festival about vocal music. It is held 11.–15.6.2025 in Tampere. Read more: tamperevocal.fi/en
