Retuperän WBK Grand Concert 21.3.
The world's best newer-French-horn-music-playing technology student orchestra from Aalto University in Espoo, Retuperäs WBK, will host their biannual grand concert at Töölönlahti Fire Brigade Hall for the first time in four years on March 21, 2025, starting at 7:00 PM.
Retuperä's chemically enhanced brass septet will once again emerge from the depths of the common folk to take the stage also known as Finlandia Hall. The approximately 2.5-hour show will be conducted by our orchestra's artistic misleader, Minna-Aria Häsling. Alongside Retuperä WBK, the event will feature the brightest shooting stars of Finland's soloist constellation, interpreting both classical music’s timeless masterpieces and cutting-edge arrangements, retouched by our national song arranger, Simeon Suihkutsalo.
Tickets for the event will cost between €15 and €70, depending on ticket category and purchase speed, so we recommend preparing for some quick typing skills on January 32, 2025, at 01:32, at the website liput.rwbk.fi. From each ticket sold, 5€ will be donated to every honorary contract fire brigade operating under the Finnish Ministry of the Interior.
We kindly ask the honorable representatives of the student associate to share this good news within your community and encourage your guild members to attend this unprecedented cultural experience. For more information about the concert and the world’s best newer-French-horn-music, visit rwbk.fi or find us on social media @retuperanwbk.
HOL choir open rehearsal and auditions
Hi you who are interested in singing!
Would you like to sing in good and multidisciplinary company? HOL (Hämäläis-Osakunnan Laulajat) is now looking for new singers! To join the choir you don’t have to be a member of Tavastia Nation, but it is a great way to get introduced to the wonderful multidisciplinary community over university boundaries.
Auditions for new singers are held twice on Tuesdays 14.1. and 21.1. We also have three open rehearsals on the same dates at 18-21 that anyone can join. Auditions and rehearsals take place in Hämäläis-Osakunta (Urho Kekkosen katu 4-6 D, 4th floor).
Book your own audition here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BC8n5-AVSFTDD7CMjopKuzirXH532brfedxiqyYFyOo

HOL prepares two to three programs per year in a goal-oriented but relaxed manner. Despite being the oldest academic mixed choir in Finland with a 95-year history, we retain a youthful spirit. We practice on Tuesdays at 18-21 in Kamppi. In the auditions, you will be singing a song of your own choice, perform a small sight singing task and a few melody replication tasks, and sing Finlandia hymn in a quartet. You can sign up for the auditions by typing your initials on the google sheets page above. Please also contact hol.rek...@gmail.com, so that we can send you the sheet music for Finlandia hymn. The rehearsals will be held in English.
Currently we are looking especially for tenors and bases, but sopranos and altos are also welcome.
We are looking forward to seeing you in the open rehearsals and auditions!
