XX BarokkiKuopio 2024

BarokkiKuopio focuses on early music in all its glory. The festival is held annually in July in Kuopio, eastern Finland.

Our approach is rooted in traditional early music performed with period instruments, though we also use all kinds of inventive, imaginative instruments and approaches. We also explore using period instruments to perform a wide variety of different musical genres, be it traditional early music, classical music from other eras or greatest hits from the 1980s.

In all our concerts we strive to find the essential spirit, style and message of the music at hand and aim to bring the audience the best possible performance from both traditional and sometimes distinctly untraditional perspectives.

The 20th edition of the BarokkiKuopio Early Music Festival has electricity/glamour as 2024 theme.
