Jazz for Kids is a series of high-quality jazz concerts for everyone from babies to grandparents!
Professional musicians perform their work at child-friendly volumes in the easily accessible facilities of the City’s cultural centres.
Singer-songwriter Viba, also known as Virva Immonen , creates a fascinating blend of alt-pop, jazz and poetry in her Finnish-language music. In 2025, she and her band released their second full-length album, Harso .
In her lyrics, Viba moves along the boundary between sleep and wakefulness, and she builds her musical world together with bassist Oskari Siirtola , who puts together the arrangements of the songs. Viba and Siirtola are performing as a duo for the first time at Annantalo! In addition to vocals and bass, the duo’s concert features colourful synthesisers.
The duration of the event is 45 minutes. The band will perform for about 35 minutes, after which the audience can greet the musicians and see the instruments.
You can sign up your group via kultus.hel.fi from 8 September onwards.
