Sibafest: Servant of Two Masters – Musician as Actor: Elina Mustonen
What do musicians and actors have in common?
How can a musician use his or her studies and experience on the altar of Thalia? And can acting give you the tools to make a living as a musician? And why on earth should a musician also become an actor? These are some of the questions you might hear answered when musician-actress Elina Mustonen tells us about her life as a servant of two masters, inspired by harpsichord music, Shakespeare and Molière.
The doors will open 15 minutes before the event starts. Places are filled in the order of arrival.

Sibafest 26–27 Jan 2024
On 26–27 Jan, the main event of Sibelius Academy’s Sibafest will fill out the Helsinki Music Centre. The festival kicks off a year packed with a thousand concerts. At Sibafest, you can follow the rehearsals for the Marriage of Figaro, try out the organ, peek behind the scenes of the symphony orchestra and participate in a techno concert and panel discussions.
Now taking place for the tenth time, Sibafest is the biennial main event of the Sibelius Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki. The event presents the Academy’s internationally top-quality concert activities. The main parts are played by the Sibelius Academy’s own students and teachers and well as the audience themselves – both together and separately.
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.
