Helsinki Academic Male Choir KYL ("Kauppakorkeakoulun Ylioppilaskunnan Laulajat") is the male choir of the Student Union of Aalto University School of Business. The choir consists mostly of present and former students of the school. A traditional yet virile league of gentlemen, the choir has been an energetic and well-recognized part of the Finnish music establishment since 1949.
Throughout the years KYL has conquered the world and provided its listeners with a wide repertoire of both Finnish national romantic as well as more modern and lighter music — not to mention serenades, drinking songs and traditional Christmas concerts.
The conductor of KYL since January 2018, Visa Yrjölä (b. 1992), received his Master of Music degree in choral conducting from the Sibelius Academy (University of the Arts, Helsinki) in June 2018. He has also done exchange studies at the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna. Yrjölä has attended several masterclasses organized by Tenso, The European Network for Professional Chamber Choirs, working with Cappella Amsterdam, the Helsinki Chamber Choir, the Netherlands Chamber Choir, the Slovenian Philharmonic Choir and the Croatian Radiotelevision Choir.
Besides the artistic leadership of KYL, Visa Yrjölä conducts two award-winning groups, the Kaamos Chamber Choir and the Euga Male Voice Choir. In 2013, the Tampere Vocal Music Festival awarded him a special prize for a young and promising conductor, and in June 2018 he was awarded the best conductor’s prize at the Bratislava Choir Festival.
