Jazz Finland Live

In the spring 2014 UMO and Club For Five will step in the swinging shoes of big band legend Glenn Miller and vocal group The Modernaires. This nostalgic concert features such classics as Jukebox Saturday Night, Tuxedo Junction and Blues in the Night. The Modernaires performed intensively with the Glenn Miller Orchestra from the beginning of 40’s until the tragic disappearance of the conductor. The collaboration resulted in many hits and the first-ever gold record with over a million copies sold. Conductor: Antti Rissanen. 

Club For Five challenges the conventional wisdom about the capability of the human voice. Their unique arrangements and original compositions combine jazz, pop, rock, and even classical music in such a chic and unique way, that they create a musical genre all their own.

During performances, audiences are astounded to hear everything from electric guitars and horns to drums and other percussion instruments. Yet, they don’t see one musical instrument on stage! Of course, the band doesn’t merely settle for imitation. Instead, these talented performers effortlessly layer every note and vocal “pop” with a joyful and skilful touch. Performances by these five singers: Maija Sariola, Susanna Hietala, Jouni Kannisto, Juha Viitala and Tuukka Haapaniemi are filled with a delightful energy and exhilarating intensity.
