NORTHERN WINDS & VOICES
The first installment performance of new and old Finnish tribal folk songs arranged exploring the universal connections between immigrants and their motherlands. Featured musicians: Heikki Koskinen (pno&winds), Kati Pienimäki Schenker (vocals), Rent Romus, (winds), Steve Heckman (winds), Noah Schenker (bass)

“NORTHERN WINDS & VOICES” was created by composer, arranger & multi-instrumentalist Heikki Koskinen. NW&V brings together musicians from many of Heikki’s past projects and performances utilizing each musician’s unique sound in creating new sonic textures and ways to interpret these songs, which are well known to the Finnish community, but arranged in non-traditional ways, influenced by straight ahead and “free” jazz as well as tangos, marches and archaic folk music.
