This immersive experience, illuminating the November darkness, fuses Jukka-Pekka Metsävainio's astrophotography of distant nebulae with Lauri Porra's evocative musical composition. "Beyond the Sky is a tonal poem that combines the scale of a symphony and a miniature opera expression, reflecting the core questions of humanity in the light of the stars and infnity. The music breathes in the rhythm of the images and builds the story alongside them", describes Porra. Oulu Sinfonia will be conducted by Dalia Stasevska. The story, told by the soloists, tie together the layers of history, science and myth. Experience this awe-inspiring event at Oulu Hall during the 2026 Lumo Light Festival. Oulu is the European Capital of Culture in 2026. Beyond the Sky is part of the Oulu2026 cultural programme and the cultural climate change initiative. *** Duration about 45 min (no intermission) Tickets 36 € normal / 29 € pensioner / 19 € student, unemployed, child (3--17 yrs) Free entry to the concert for Kaikukortti holders (limited amount, must be purchased in advance from Oulu10 service point).
