About the choir

The Pilgrims is an amateur choir for adults, founded in Helsinki to unite people who love singing together. For us, singing is more than a hobby: it is energy shared with like-minded people, and we bring that joy to every performance.

Music, friendship and support

What matters to us and what we sing.

Our values

In the choir, we value not only music but also the joy of connecting with others, discovering new things, and the sense of teamwork. For us, singing is more than a hobby; it’s an energizing experience shared with like-minded individuals. We sing together to inspire and support each other.

When someone joins us, they don’t just become part of the group — they become a member of our close-knit choir, where we celebrate creativity and shared accomplishments.

Repertoire

Choosing the season’s repertoire is a collaborative process. Choir members suggest their favorite pieces, and the choir director selects those most suitable for performance.

In our performances, you’ll hear Beatles hits, movie soundtracks, and even jazz classics. We create a musical journey where everyone can discover something familiar and dear to their heart.
