Puhti is a new “chamber music” band with two woodwind blowers and a cellist. Trio’s musicians have a strong background in jazz, improvised music, rock and classical music.
Pepa Päivinen and Jorma Tapio have a common playing history since the early days of the Edward Vesala Sound and Fury. Vesala’s strong, original northern sound, spiced up with “Finnish blues”, rubato and classic nuances, has influenced the band’s sound. Cellist Juho Kanervo brings a fresh addition to the band by his spontaneous and rare musicianship.
The band’s music is colourful and interesting, extending from strict compositions to intuitive improvisation. Most of the compositions are made by members of the band.
The concert is supported by City of Helsinki, Svenska Kulturfonden, The Finnish Music Foundation and The Arts Promotion Centre Finland (Taike).
