Kari Turunen's first concert with Kampin Laulu Chamber Choir - Song of Songs
Old Testament's classical and powerful Song of Songs has inspired our October concert with the new artistic director Kari Turunen. Five contemporary composers have given each a unique touch to these ancient yet modern texts.

Kari Turunen will start as the choir's new artistic director in August 2011. (The press release is in Finnish only.) From November 2010 till then, the choir is conducted by vice-conductor Jonas Rannila.
