Jazz Finland Live

The internationally acclaimed Jussi Fredriksson Trio’s newest album Archipelago Sea Tales (2021) tells sad and beautiful stories about the world’s most captivating archipelago. Pianist Jussi Fredriksson penned a new repertoire for the band, in the middle of the corona peak. Instead of the health crisis at hand, he drew inspiration from life by the Baltic Sea shore. His compositions are a wild journey from the islander folklore romance to the nature disaster that is facing the South-Western archipelago. The pieces paint a devastating picture of the state of the sea, but also spark hope and survival. Fredriksson’s music comes alive on stage with his trio staples: bassist Jori Huhtala and drummer Mika Kallio.
