Linda Suolahti
violin

Linda Suolahti, violin, is one of Finland’s leading soloists and a prominent advocate for diversity in classical music. She is the Artistic Director of the Kokonainen/Musequal Festival, which since 2016 has spotlighted overlooked works by women and minority composers.

Her ongoing Unrecorded album series, released by Alba Records, brings to light previously unrecorded works by Finnish women and queer composers.
Known for her versatility as a soloist, concertmaster, and chamber musician, she has appeared with ensembles such as the Mahler Chamber Orchestra and Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, and served as concertmaster of the Lapland Chamber Orchestra from 2017 to 2020. She currently focuses on solo and chamber music performances, alongside her work with O/Modernt Chamber Orchestra.

Based in Helsinki, she maintains a versatile international career and performs on a 1732 Carlo Bergonzi violin, generously loaned by the Signe and Ane Gyllenberg Foundation.
