We Will Rock You! Turku Philharmonic Orchestra and the vocal ensemble Rajaton will once again join forces, this time to perform music of the iconic Queen. In 2024, we celebrated ABBA’s music with three sold-out concerts, and now we´ll rock out under the baton of conductor Nick Davies. The hits of one of the most popular bands of all time will be performed in Jaakko Kuusisto´s arrangements for symphony orchestra, including the songs Who Wants to Live Forever, Bohemian Rhapsody and The Show Must Go On.
