Case Kämäräinen

Polish mysticism, echoes of Norwegian fjords and Finnish romanticism. Case Kämäräinen, who draws their music from these starting points, stops on their Mystique From The North release tour at Pakkahuone, Savonlinna klo 18:00

"With their latest album Joyride, Case Kämäräinen solves the key dilemmas of contemporary jazz: how it sounds modern while maintaining a connection to the jazz tradition, how to compose ambitiously without sounding difficult to approach" - Tommi Autio / Salon Seudun Sanomat, album review

Case Kämäräinen is an international jazz quartet that presents the music of drummer Tomi Kämäräinen. Kämäräinen was last heard on tour in the United States with artist Janet Evra in the autumn of 2021. The melodies of Kämäräinen's compositions are interpreted by Marek Konarski on saxophone, while the piano features virtuoso improviser Tuomo Uusitalo. Double bassist Petter Asbjørnsen is known for several solo productions.

The music for the new album Mystique From The North (Eclipse Music) has been composed mostly with vibraphone. That's why vibraphonist Severi Pyysalo is a more than a welcome addition to the tour!

"Very pleasant jazz, especially thanks to the smooth and colorful playing of the quartet's key soloist, saxophonist Konarski."
