The band
Kai Olander is a versatile and sought-after player of saxes and flutes. He is very experienced in many styles of music which makes him an ideal partner in any modern combo. We have played together in two different bands before this project.
Antti Utriainen is able to sit in any band no matter what they play. He joined this orchestra after the rumours got out that "some crazy composer needs sane players to make a cd". Well, he had the guts to call me. I'm glad he did make the call.
Hannu Rantanen needs not to be introduced. Currently, besides teaching, he plays with Värttinä and several other groups.
Kepa Kettunen works with at least 20 orchestras or bands and this recording clearly shows why he is one of the most wanted drummers in this country. |
