2025: Origin/-ality
RUSK is a chamber music festival held annually in Pietarsaari/Jakobstad, Finland at the end of November. RUSK seeks to reflect the present day and age with its myriad variations and challenges. It is a melting pot in which creativity is unleashed in exotic contexts at the darkest, bleakest time of the northern year. In 2020 conductor Anna-Maria Helsing was appointed as new artistic director of RUSK.
