Jazz Finland Live

Espoo-based April Jazz and Turku-based Flame Jazz bring the distinguished American jazz pianist Brad Mehldau to Finland in February 2016. A five-time Grammy-nominee, Mehldau released his latest album – a compilation of solo pieces recorded live in Europe over a ten-year period – only in last October. He will be seen on stage at Turku’s Sigyn hall on Friday 12 February and at Espoo’s Sello Hall on the following day.

His solo concerts have met with acclaim all over the globe. He is known for his virtuosic touch on the piano and his dazzlingly eclectic programmes where Thelonius Monk, The Beatles and Johannes Brahms meet Nirvana and Radiohead. A masterful composer, Mehldau also includes his original pieces in his solo concerts, without forgetting a generous dose of free improvisation.
