Villa Kokkonen is Alvar Aalto´s masterpiece, a historic artist residence, an Iconic House, architectural sight and a concert venue near Helsinki. Located on the shore of Lake Tuusula, it is 24/7 lived, managed, hosted and guided by two professional performing artists, Mrs. Elina Viitaila and Mr. Antti A. Pesonen. Elina is pianist and Master of Music graduated at the Sibelius Academy, Helsinki Antti is a classical singer and Master of Social Sciences graduated at the University of Tampere Having rented Villa Kokkonen from The City of Järvenpää, Elina and Antti have been the entrepreneur of Alvar Aalto´s Villa Kokkonen since 1 June 2009. Also the valuable original grand piano which was given to Mr. Joonas Kokkonen by The Finnish Academy has been maintained solely by Elina and Antti for the last decade.
