About
One of Finalnd’s most versatile musicians, Jaakko Kuusisto has an extensive discography with BIS where he has recorded as a chamber musician, soloist, concertmaster, conductor, composer, and arranger. This release features Kuusisto as both composer and performer. One can hear Kuusisto’s nods to some of his hero composers including Stravinsky, Sibelius, and Prokofiev, fusing together centuries of Western music to form his own unique style. Joining Kuusisto for this recording is the Meta4 String Quartet, who frequently performs Kuusisto’s works, and pianist Paavali Jumppanen who has written extensive liner notes for this release.
