Seppo Kantonen Trio marks a return to the traditional piano-bass-drums trio format for pianist Seppo Kantonen. The ensemble will be touring extensively in Finland in January-February 2024, including a concert in Seinäjoki.
"The lineup began rehearsals for my new composition material in early 2023. The band's expressive language is somewhat free but based on composed elements. In my own opinion, I have only recently found a mixture of consonance and dissonance that I find pleasing. The beautiful drum sound of Markku Ounaskari and the rhythmically strong bassism of Antti Lötjönen, both of whom are also sensitive and quick to react to new situations, support the mood of my songs. Overall, the trio's pursuit of clear expression is, in my opinion, the most fitting description," says Kantonen....

Seppo Kantonen Trio merkitsee pianisti Seppo Kantoselle paluuta perinteisen piano-basso-rummut -trion pariin. Yhtye kiertää laajasti Suomessa tammi-helmikuussa 2024 ja konsertoi myös Seinäjoella.
"Kokoonpano aloitti uuden sävellysmateriaalini harjoitukset vuoden 2023 alussa. Bändin ilmaisullinen kieli on vapaahko mutta sävellettyyn pohjautuva. Omasta mielestäni olen vasta viime aikoina löytänyt mieleiseni sekoituksen konsonansseista ja dissonansseista. Kappaleitteni tunnelmaa tukevat Markku Ounaskarin kaunis rumpusoundi ja Antti Lötjösen rytmisesti vahva basismi molempien ollessa myös herkkiä ja nopeita reagoimaan uusiin tilanteisiin. Kaiken kaikkiaan trion pyrkimys selkeään ilmaisuun on mielestäni parhaiten kuvaava luonnehdinta,” kertoo Kantonen.
