Valokuvia

I finally finished the massive project of fixin' the photos of our visit to Rome. More than 1200 pics. Some of them I sent here.

Improvisages rehearsed with two singers -  music from late Baroque to almost modern times. And  of course there was some jazz involved. There is a concert coming soon.

Keikalta kotiin

Sini, J-V and I performed a gig in Suolahtisali. There were a lots of speeches and only some music. These kind of gigs are quite hard to play - one piece of music here and one there. You always have to begin the performance from the beginning and then it's over - and you begin again. Well, I knew  it in advance -  Sini and J-V didn't. Now they know it, too. But all in all everything succeeded fine.

Takaisin Roomasta

Back from Rome, Italy. What a fantastic city!! (Juha H.)

Konsertti ja matkaan

Sini  and I were in a concert in Suolahtisali.  There performed  Jyväskylä Sinfonia  some very nice music - Prokofiev,  Beethoven and  especially wonderful was the violin concerto composed by Atso Almila. Modern concert music and the soloist was quite a fantastic improviser Mikko-Ville Luolajan-Mikkola.  Music makes me so very happy, happy.

Tomorrow Sini and I are going to travel to Rome, Italy for a vacation. We're going to stay there for a week.

Syksyn lehdet ja Improvisages

Frozen leaves. - I added  here a video excerpt from our concert a week ago. It's some 6-7 minutes from the beginning of the happening. Three pieces of music - instrumental fragment, a song sung by Sini and a poem recited  by Maija P. on top of free tonal improvisation by Improvisages. (Juha H.)
