Jazz Finland Live

A trio without any harmony instrument allows freedom of musical expression but also requires musical responsibility. TM3 is a trio which collaborates and elaborates these two elements. Their music is allowed to find new directions and is always given freedom to breathe. Their repertuaire consists of Mäkynen´s original compositions and some less familiar jazz standards.

"I love the improvisation part. I'm really happy to have the luxury to express myself through jazz because it can go anywhere," she says. "I love the interaction between the musicians on stage. I'm not the kind of musician who only wants to play a solo, show what I can do and be on my little island on stage. I like to have collective improvisation with all the musicians around me—having a dialogue. I think that's really magic. It's so diverse, it can go everywhere." She avows, "Art is very important to keep people inspired, critical and in touch with spiritual and social parts of life. Jazz can make people grow and develop creative thinking; it touches all those aspects. Jazz is life."
