Finnish Expatriate Choir Concert ”Beyond Borders”

Alongside traditional Finnish choir pieces the choir will perform songs composed and arranged by Finnish expatriates. 

Established in 2021 and led by Maria Männistö (Seattle) and Eva-Christina Pietarinen (Helsinki), the Finnish Expatriate Choir is a blend of Finnish voices from around the world. 

In addition to expatriates, the choir welcomes individuals interested in Finnish language and culture, as well as former expats who have returned to Finland.

Despite the geographical distance between the members, the Finnish Expatriate Choir has managed to thrive through online activities, connecting more than 200 singers from 12 countries. 

In 2022, the choir released a CD “Yli rajojen/Beyond Borders”, and in 2023, Suomi-Seura awarded the choir the title of “Expatriate of the Year”.
