The hottest name in jazz right now Vijay Iyer is bringing his trio to Helsinki for We Jazz. We’re bound to hear material from the recent awesome album Break Stuff. The trio’s music is minimalistic and hypnotic all at once.
Teppo Mäkynen’s Teddy’s West Coasters don’t play gigs very often. Their performance at We Jazz will be their second one since debut album Volume 1 was released.

M. A. Numminenrecitation, maybe something else
Jazzmaailman tämän hetken kuumin nimi, amerikkalaispianisti Vijay Iyer saapuu Helsinkiin trionsa kera. Luvassa varmasti helmiä superlevyltä Break Stuff. Trion musiikki on minimalistista, hypnoottista ja hengittävää.
Rumpali Teppo Mäkysen johtama Teddy’s West Coasters keikkailee harvakseltaan. Tämä on vasta yhtyeen toinen esiintyminen kesällä julkaistun Volume 1 -debyytin jälkeen. West Coastersissa Tepon mukana on liuta ykköskorin suomijazzareita ja upeaa on se, miten yhtenäisesti bändi tulkitsee Mäkysen musiikkia yhdessä lavalla.
Suomen arvostetuimpiin taiteilijoihin kuuluva M. A. Numminen on We Jazz -tapahtuman suojelija. Koemme jo perinteeksi muodostuneen Nummisen avajaisperformanssin, joka voi olla mitä tahansa.
