Joonas Haavisto Trio feat. Teemu Viinikainen

Joonas Haavisto is an international award-winning pianist and composer. He is one of the most exciting young jazz musicians coming from the Nordic jazz scene. Joonas joined the world- famous Steinway Artist roster  in May 2017.  Stylistically, the music of Joonas Haavisto Trio is rooted at the jazz piano trio tradition, while the band is also not shy to utilize a freer form of expression made possible by the harmonic and melodic choices made by Haavisto in composing the tunes. On this concert the trio will be joined by a guitar virtuoso Teemu Viinikainen.
