Kymi Sinfonietta

The Kymi Sinfonietta is one of the leading Finnish orchestras of its size. It is a dynamic ensemble of 31 regular players and performs with conductors and soloists of the highest calibre. Kymi Sinfonietta has long traditions, being made up of musicians from the Kotka and Kouvola City Orchestras merged at the end of 1998. Combining their resources enabled the two cities to create this dynamic sinfonietta-sized orchestra.

Concerts are held weekly at Kotka Concert Hall on Wednesdays and Kouvola City Hall on Thursdays.
