The seamless and bubbly duet of Maria Kalaniemi and Elina Leskelä, along with music reflecting the Finnish soulscape, invites you to a concert to lift your spirits, enjoy their skill, and revel in wonderful music.
The concert features beloved Finnish melodies, fiery tangos, light waltzes, and tricky polkas—from Metsäkukat to Satumaa to Säkkijärvi polka. With HoivaPelimannit, the audience also gets to sing along to familiar songs.
Five years ago, two top musicians, accordionists Maria Kalaniemi and Elina Leskelä, started musical visits to care homes as part of the HoivaPelimannit duo at JuuriJuhla-RotFest. During this time, they’ve been actively touring care home wards, senior residences, memory care centers, and memory conferences. Maria and Elina build bridges to memories with their music and bring joy to those who can’t make it to concert halls. The audience has been thrilled!
