Saturday Jazz Club: Jazz Jkl Collective feat. Teemu Viinikainen

One of the year’s final jazz clubs once again features master guitarist Teemu Viinikainen. Expect a lively selection of classics by legendary jazz guitarists—with a festive touch of Christmas, too! For nearly twenty years, Teemu Viinikainen has deservedly held the mantle of Finland’s leading jazz guitarist. His remarkable skill has been recognised around the world, and he has been described as following in the footsteps of pioneers of modern jazz guitar such as Pat Metheny, Wayne Krantz and John Scofield. Viinikainen’s guest appearances at Jazz Jkl’s closing clubs of the event year have become almost a Christmas tradition, and, as usual, the programme will feature a medley of music by legendary jazz guitarists and jazzy Christmas moods.
