Topias Tiheäsalo, electric guitar

Topias Tiheäsalo plays versions of compositions which he calls “free jazz ballads”. The songs he performs range from John Coltrane to Duke Ellington and from Don Cherry to Albert Ayler. He tries to find the essence of the compositions by whittling down and simplifying them, creating almost skeletal interpretations that are nevertheless very much alive in the moment. Tiheäsalo also plays his own compositions, but the emphasis is always on improvisation in a very free framework. The focus is on sound, tone, atmosphere, including momentary silences. Sounds light up, play – and die away. 

The order fee applies to tickets purchased from Lippupiste.
