About the operation:

During its 40 year long history, the choir has evolved from an ordinary Finnish school choir to an artistic and pedagogical instrument known throughout the international choir community. Over the decades approximately 500 girls and boys have sung in the choir.

The Tapiola Choir arranges auditions in the spring time. Please contact the choir's staff for more information.

The Tapiola Choir rehearses once a week in Thursday evening in the premises of the Tapiola school in Espoo. During the first year the new singers have additional weekly rehearses. Occasionally the choir also attends weekend rehearsals.
