Kasper Halttunen 5tet
Kasper Halttunen 5tet is a band founded in the fall of 2023, performing fresh compositions by drummer and composer Kasper Halttunen in the spirit of modern jazz. Halttunen’s compositions focus on beautiful and strong melodies, around which the music is free to flow and develop. The band’s sound combines the soft harmony of the vibraphone and alto saxophone with a traditional piano trio, with influences not only from jazz but also from the worlds of gospel and hip-hop.
