After four visits to Helsinki this must be love
Boston Herald
If you’re lucky an orchestra in full formal dress will be tuning up in the bandstand across from the Kappeli for one of the concerts that continue throughout the day. I was so entranced by the music (and cloudberry liqueur) that I sat through two concerts — a fiery tango performance that would have made Carlos Gardel proud (the Finns are passionate devotees of tango) and a tribute to a native son composer Jean Sibelius that included his epic Finlandia and The Swan of Tuonela. If you are a fan of Sibelius you might be able to catch a concert of his music at Finlandia Hall but even if he is not on the hall’s concert schedule during your visit you can pay your respects at one of the city’s most unusual monuments. The Sibelius Monument in Sibelius Park is a sculpture resembling organ pipes. It is 600 hollow steel pipes welded together in a wavelike pattern. Helsinki is composed of a number of bays peninsulas and islands on the Gulf of Finland and near the Baltic Sea. A pleasant way to spend a summer afternoon is to take a cruise through its winding canals — like Stockholm Helsinki is often referred to as “the Venice of the North.
