Teemu Kekkonen
pianist, composer
Finnish jazz pianist & composer Teemu Kekkonen is a rising star in the European scene. Thoughtfully crafted compositions, cinematic harmonies, captivating grooves and familiar melodies are the cornerstones of his music. One foot in Finland’s folk roots and one in the most urbane of metropolitan jazz clubs, his openness to everything from Ravel to rock, traditional Finnish music to contemporary jazz provides a highly individual twist on the jazz piano front, for an experience that is equally calming and exhilarating.
- At jazzahead! I’m looking to meet colleagues and make new friends. I’m putting out a new piano trio album in 2024-2025 and hoping to find people to work with on that front.
