Introduction
Mikkeli Music Festival 2024 kicks off with a jubilant Pre-Opening concert at the heart of Stella Shopping Mall, free for all!
In March 2023, the singers of the South Savo Music Theatre and Opera Association delighted the audience on the Mikaeli stage with Oskar Merikanto's opera Elina's Death, produced in Mikkeli. In Stella's day concert, ESMO's vocal soloists and ensemble will interpret a varied ensemble of songs and operatic music.
At the heart of the programme are works by two composers whose centenary year is 2024: the genius of operatic drama, Giacomo Puccini, whose death is 200 years ago, and the interpreter of Finnish summer evenings, Oskar Merikanto, whose death is 100 years ago.
The concert will be hosted by Erkki Lasonpalo, Artistic Director of Mikkeli Music Festival. The concert's duration will be announced later.
Tickets
The concert is free.
