- 25 July: Porvoo Cathedral
- 26 July: Temppeliaukio Church, Helsinki
- 28 July: Heino Eller Music College, Tartu
- 30 July: Niguliste Museum, Tallinn
Our 2024 souvenir tour programme, including running-orders for the four concerts, can be downloaded here.
We are thrilled to be able to share good wishes for the choir, from our supporters:
Wishing the brilliant Taplow Youth Choir a wonderful and successful tour. You are a special group of committed people, bursting with talent and fabulous musicianship. Treasure the music making and the friendship.
