IKONOSTASIS is a series of Kari Ikonen’s musical images – both composed and improvised – to be performed either solo, or together with some of his favourite musicians.
The new album on the same name includes duets with French clarinetist Louis Sclavis, and a trio with legendary American drummer Ra-Kalam Bob Moses and Norwegian trumpeter Mathias Eick.
“Platten wie lkonostasis sind selten geworden.” -Jazzthetik (DE)
“Wunderbar meditative Stimmungen schaft und dabei immer wieder einen rhythmisch groovenden Flow entwickelt. Eine Musik ohne Haltbarkeitsbegrenzung.” -Fidelity (DE)

Kari Ikonen & Louis Sclavis (FIN/FRA)
Kari Ikonen – Moog synthesizer
Louis Sclavis – clarinet & bass clarinet
