Description
Let's sing Christmas carols! The concert is hosted by the Finnish Youth Choir of the Year, Larte.
Larte Youth Choir was founded in 1968. Since 1970, Larte has been part of the Western Uusimaa Music Institute. The choir is based in Lohja, Finland.
Larte’s repertoire often combines choral singing with various rhythmic elements using body percussion or other instruments, while never losing its sense of playfulness. Larte’s singers are between 12 and 20 years of age.
Since autumn 2010, Larte has been conducted by Elina Laakkonen. She has previously led children’s and youth choirs in Kirkkonummi and currently conducts both Larte and the Ojusirkut Children’s Choir.
At the concert hosted by Larte, the audience is invited to prepare for and celebrate the Christmas season together. Snowstorms and frosty winter weather also play a part in the programme.
During the concert, the audience can participate in ways other than simply singing along with the choir. The concert will be hosted by Inari Tilli.
Please bring your own Santa hat, preferably one with a jingle bell attached!
