MATINEE FOR CHILDREN: A GHOST ON A CLOTHESLINE

Thursday 01.02.2024 at 10am

Kuopio Symphony Orchestra
József Hárs, conductor
Tarja Luoma and Ulla Piispanen, vocals
Matti Tegelman, bass and vocals

The concert is aimed especially for children’s groups from day care centers and elementary schools and for the disabled.

Based on poems by Tuula Korolainen and compositions by Timo Klemettinen, the children’s musical Aave pyykkinarulla (‘A Ghost on a Clothesline’) presents exciting events and funny ghosts. The musical also features dancing phantom mummies, bats, goblins, and all sorts of strange folks. This musical exploration takes the listeners to the pyramids of Egypt and, via the Bermuda Triangle, to a pirate island. Through a ghost town of Texas, the journey continues to China, where we will get acquainted with dragons. The concert welcomes both children and adults to a world of strange phenomena and colourful music!
