The disappointments of the past and the turbulent relationship patterns tear Emma and Sophie apart\, making the duo wonder what they really want. Will courage overcome insecurity\, and will Emma and Sophie find each other again? \n\n“Who could love me” is a mini-musical that deals with feelings of inadequacy and alienation through two main characters. The stage is accompanied by an orchestra of over 20 musicians who play well-known musical songs that tie the story together. Designed\, written and directed by students from the Helsinki Pop & Jazz Conservatory\, the work highlights themes such as discrimination\, insecurity and loneliness\, and reminds us that each of us fundamentally wishes to be loved just as we are. \n\nMeri Hellsten – vocalsVenla Malinen – vocalsOnni Koivisto – drumsSofía Kaipainen – bass and vocalsAukusti Koskinen – guitarKim Jalonen – guitarHelmi Ketola – keyboardsPessi Heiskanen – keyboards and ensembleJoel Mäntyvaara – percussionOlavi Miettinen – ensembleHanna Riikonen – ensembleAino Kallio – ensembleHanna Mikkanen – ensembleTuuli Piltonen – ensembleSiiri Toiviainen – saxophoneJenna Mikkanen – trumpetOskari Matinlassi – tromboneAnniina Tuomaala – fluteElisa Wang – violinFelix Sorainen – violinElena Rusakova – violaNicola Wilkman – celloPhoto by Hene Ketoharju \n\nFree admission!

Two great and large ensembles will take turns. These concerts are not to be missed! \n\nScheduleat 19.00 Who could love me – mini-musicalat 20.00 Nella sings Ella \n\nWho could love me – mini musicalEmma (Venla Malinen) and Sophie (Meri Hellsten)\, who fell in love in high school\, meet unexpectedly in a jazz bar\, where their feelings from years ago bubble to the surface again. The disappointments of the past and the turbulent relationship patterns tear Emma and Sophie apart\, making the duo wonder what they really want. Will courage overcome insecurity\, and will Emma and Sophie find each other again? “Who could love me” is a mini-musical that deals with feelings of inadequacy and alienation through two main characters. The stage is accompanied by an orchestra of over 20 musicians who play well-known musical songs that tie the story together. Designed\, written and directed by students from the Helsinki Pop&Jazz Conservatory\, the work highlights themes such as discrimination\, insecurity and loneliness\, and reminds us that each of us fundamentally hopes to be loved just as we are.
