Welcome to the Musiikkitalo organ tour! The tour lasts about 15 minutes, during which we’ll explore Musiikkitalo’s famous concert hall organ.
You have arrived at Musiikkitalo’s Concert Hall. In front of you opens an impressive, dark-toned hall, where your attention is drawn to the light-colored concert stage and the artwork-like organ behind it.
Surrounding the stage are asymmetrical seating sections that rise like vineyards on the slopes of mountains. This kind of hall is called a vineyard-style hall.
The hall was designed by the world-renowned Japanese acoustician Yasuhisa Toyota together with Finnish architects. There are 1,689 seats in the hall.
Musiikkitalo was opened in August 2011 and was designed by the Turku-based LPR Architects. The chief architect was Marko Kivistö.
In addition to this hall, Musiikkitalo has five smaller halls. Altogether, the building hosts over 1,300 events each year, ranging from classical music concerts to jazz, folk music, and rock.
