Hope this year will be better than the 2 previous ones !!!

In Finland live music is forbidden again, but luckily elsewhere art & culture is more appreciated. Next solo concert is at the Kölner Philharmonie Sat, Feb 5, looking so much forward !!! And Orchestra Nazionale della Luna gets finally to Belgium, inchallah… this tour was cancelled & rebooked soooo many times already. In April-May I’ll do a long flight-free Low-CO₂ solo piano tour: St. Petersburg, Baltics, Poland, Germany, France, Denmark, Sweden… a lot of time in trains, all alone – I’m quite excited about that !!! Some interesting new collaborations coming up, some recordings too… I’ll tell more soon!

And I’m happy to see that my solo piano album has made it to “best of 2021” lists on three continents: Europe Jazz Media Chart, Australian Broadcasting Corporation and New York City Jazz Record !!!
