Conductor Ed Partyka

Sold out! 

UMO Helsinki Jazz Orchestra opens the doors of its rehearsal space for the audience! At UMO Helsinki´s open rehearsals you will witness how the program gets crystallised and the orchestra’s sound unified. As the rehearsals are kept as authentic as possible, certain parts and passages may be honed a number of times. A conductor will also be present at the rehearsals, directing the orchestra toward the desired sound.

Friday 5.5. there is a final rehearsal for Nina Mya and UMO’s album release concert led by conductor Ed Partyka. The compositions are mainly Nina Mya’s own, the arrangements are by Partyka. The concert is part of UMO’s Great Voices series, and as the name reveals, there will be wonderful vocal jazz. The rehearsals are open for visitors from 12:30 to 14:30.

Free admission.
