Nurmes Summer Music | 3–11 July 2027 

The theme for Nurmes Summer Music 2027 is “Moved”

What moves us?
What sets us in motion? If art can touch and move us, can it also move the world?

Being moved is a sign that something matters to us. We are moved when something touches us—when another person, a work of art, or a fleeting moment becomes meaningful.

Art and music possess a unique power to move us. Moreover, music itself cannot exist without movement. Before music becomes meaning, it is movement.
