The Cantantes Finlandeses (a Finnish choir) will be performing tonight at 7:30 pm in Monterrico at the Misión Siloé church.
The Finnish choir is composed of 22 singers accompanied by Martin Segerstråle on the piano. The choir was put together specially for the trip to Guatemala, and is made up 
of Swedish-speaking singers.
The tour was designed with the thought of introducing Finnish and Swedish music to a part of the world where Finland isn’t well known. The classical music is drawn from both Finnish and Swedish backgrounds, with a particular focus given to choir music. Folk music and modern music will also have a small part in the program. Some popular songs will be played as crowd-pleasers as well.
The choir is capable of singing in a variety of languages, although most in the choir share the same mother tongue: Swedish.
This concert in Monterrico is the third and final performance for the Cantantes Finlandeses, so make sure you don’t miss it!
