Global Spring: Markus Snellman
Time and space
”Time and Space” brings together two artists to explore an interdependent play where percussive sounds evolve enfolded in ambient soundscapes, and seemingly still atmospheres are in turn transformed by a sense of time through rhythm.
The concert combines acoustic and electric elements, human and non-human sound-creation, rhythms from near and far reflected through old and new experiences. Musical scenes are created over a long arc, where the many sides of sonic expression are celebrated.
Performers
- Markus Snellman, drums
- Juho Tuomainen, electric guitar

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.
