Biography

Heräämisen valkea myrsky is Mikko Sarvanne Garden's debut album.

The debut album of composer-multi-instrumentalist Mikko Sarvanne's Garden, Heräämisen valkea myrsky, is a combination of contemporary vocal music and Nordic modern jazz. The album is based on poet Erkka Filander's poetry of the same name, which has filtered into the band's music both as titles for the compositions and as sung lyrics.

The first single of the album was Kirsikka, calm in its elements and evoking the rhythm of nature. Trumpetist Tomi Nikku and harpist Katilyne Roels guested on the single are alongside the seven-member band.

Founded in 2020, Mikko Sarvanne Garden consists of the top musicians of the young generation of jazz and classical music, whose members have been heard in the ranks of e.g. Tampere Philharmonic Orchestra, Superposition and Signe. The band's music combines Sarvanne's precise vision and the freedom and peace of the band's playing. Mikko Sarvanne Garden takes the listener to a parallel reality - to a garden where the beginnings of contemporary vocal music, soft jazz and sound art echo.
