During the winter war, the people of Vyborg were offered the opportunity to leave their beloved treasures at home, where the authorities would collect them, take care of them and bring them back to the owners to the evacuation centers. In what state of mind did the people of Vyborg turn their backs on the singing capital of Karelia? Goodbye, Vyborg! is a dramatic but optimistic work about a lost city and the fate of its inhabitants.
The musical drama which is based on real events and characters tells a forgotten, touching story with words and music. The music is compiled from hits of the era and new songs composed by Seppo Äikäs.
