For teachers, the programme includes lectures and discussions on jazz music, jazz pedagogy and its cultural context. For students, the main focus will be on ensemble work. This year, student ensembles will be directed by Sibelius Academy Honorary Doctors Dave Liebman, Anders Jormin, Tim Hagans and Aaron Goldberg, as well as jazz music professor Jukkis Uotila and drummer Savannah Harris.

Mannerheimintie renovation project

Access to the Musiikkitalo from the direction of Mannerheimintie will be difficult. We recommend that you allow enough time for your arrival and use the entrance on the side of Kansalaistori if possible. According to current information, the entrance to Mannerheimintie will also remain in use throughout the renovation, but pedestrian routes can be challenging at times.

We recommend following the official information channels of the renovation project, where you can find the most up-to-date information.
