In the future, the Opera Festival will be led by a management team headed by Artistic Director Ville Matvejeff.
Strandholm has been at the helm of the Opera Festival since 2012.
– I feel privileged to work with a top team, without whom the festival could not possibly be produced. I never thought it would take this long, but the people, the opera, Olavinlinna and Savonlinna were very absorbing,” says Jan Strandholm in a press release.
