About
Ida Alanen – piano and compositions, Jonathan Bäckström – double bass, Benjamin Nylund – drums
Ida Alanen Trio’s music draws inspiration from visual forms and the borderline between sleep and awakeness, inviting images from the subconscious into broad daylight. The trio’s seamless sound is a result of three years of collaboration, and the ensemble alternates effortlessly between carefully orchestrated compositions and free improvisations. The ensemble’s leader Ida Alanen is currently enrolled in the Master’s Degree Programme at the Amsterdam Conservatorium, studying under Harmen Fraanje. Originally based in Helsinki, the trio now tours both in Finland and internationally. Their Jazz-Espa concert will feature material from the trio’s debut album, set to release in autumn 2023....
