Embodied: an expression of, or giving tangible form to an idea, quality or feeling.

For Linda, the idea of embodiment has meant embarking on a journey inward to better understand how being both a musician and a dancer influence her creative output as an artist.

Linda’s dance and movement stems from street dance styles such as hip hop and house. A big part of the dance culture and hip-hop culture is the sense of community, sharing and creating together, whilst staying true to your own form of expression. The dance and movement in the concert are partly choreographed, but mostly improvised.

Welcome to witness an intriguing blend of music and dance in this genre bending concert.
The musical soundscapes, sounds, melodies, and harmonies fluctuate from cinematic melancholy to passionate rhythms, with the movement/dance serving as both an echo from and a motivator for the music.

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.
