Jorma Tapio’s Kaski, Robert Burke & Eivind Opsvik

Click the play button to listen

A little "Finnish" to start? Why not? Some fine bands from Suomi kick off this episode, with the fine saxophonist Jorma Tapio and his trio, Kaski, leading the way from their new release Aliseen. Tapio and mates use the folk music of Finland as the basis for their intriguing improvisations. After that you'll hear two newer groups on the Finnish scene: Oaagaada and the JAF Trio. Also in that first hour, Aussie saxophonist Rob Burke continues to display his formidable skills framed by a highly talented group of New York musicians. Then the next segment is highlighted by a pair of tunes from the fine bassist Eivind Opsvik who has just released a compilation of live performances by his group Overseas over the span of 2002 to 2012. The NY group, Caterpillar Quartet makes its One Man's Jazz debut as well. Finally, the third hour "travels" with music from music from several different countries, including the German/Norwegian improvising trio of Conny Bauer, Matthias Bauer and Dag Magnus Narvesen and their new album The Gift. There's more good stuff as always. Enjoy!
