Along the Stream

1 h 30 min inc. intermission
This year’s festival ends by the water, awaiting Oulu’s European Capital of Culture year in 2026. In the spirit of bold explorers, we offer music for the journey: the evocative sounds of Olli Mustonen and a slightly reimagined version of the beloved sextet by Johannes Brahms.

The boat hall of the Oulu Workers’ Sailing Club that serves as the venue provides a unique concert experience in the beautiful Oulujoki river delta, surrounded by boats. Please note that the venue may be chilly in case of cold weather. The services of the nearby Seelari café-restaurant are available before and after the concert, as well as during the intermission.
