Institution Notes:
The Institute was founded in 1965. It is the home of the Helsinki Strings, which comprises students from this Institute and the Sibelius Academy with which it works in close collaboration. Languages of instruction are Finnish and Swedish. Instruction is at pre-tertiary level, with some emphasis on the teaching of strings and other instruments by the Colour Strings method, using the Kodály philosophy. The Institute also organises music tuition for interested adults. Attached to the Institute is the Eastern Helsinki Music School, founded in 1999 and which, since 2009, has been operating as part of Porolahden elementary school.
