Kalmari Quartet
Kalmari Quartet is a brand new supergroup, where musicians with extensive international careers meet.
Kalmari Quartet's strong expression stems from diverse experiences and musical views. The unique and rich compositions of the band members (Kalle Kalima, Aki Rissanen, Antti Lötjönen and Markku Ounaskari) are skillfully intertwined, creating a deep and multidimensional soundscape. They flow energetically forward, like a mystical squid rising from the depths of the sea, hiding an endless number of secrets.

Jazz in Finland 100
In 2026, it will be 100 years since jazz symbolically arrived in Finland aboard the ship *Andania*. The year is therefore a historic anniversary for Finnish jazz: the Jazz Suomi 100 celebratory year. The anniversary highlights Finnish jazz and its creators both in Finland and abroad, celebrating jazz as part of Finland’s cultural heritage. The Jazz Suomi 100 campaign is coordinated by the Finnish Jazz Federation.
