Tampere Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of its chief conductor, performs some of Finland's finest Finnish music on Independence Day. After Pacius's "Maamme" (the Finnish national anthem), the concert will feature Jean Sibelius's Karelia Suite and Valse Triste, as well as Väinö Raitio's The Swans.
