Legendary Jazz Trio in Finland!

Since the early 2000s, pianist and composer Andy Emler, double bassist Claude Tchamitchian, and drummer Eric Echampard have been exploring a universe between composition and improvisation together as a trio.

This year, from March 13 to 19, this French trio will be touring Finland for six concerts, offering a chance to discover excerpts from their new album There is another way. The group will perform in Seinäjoki, Äänekoski, Kajaani, Joensuu, Savonlinna, and will conclude their tour with a final concert on March 19 at the Malmitalo Cultural Center in Helsinki. For this last concert, Finnish accordionist Veli Kujala will join them to perform a few pieces from the French chanson repertoire.

With the French Institute of Finland, you can enjoy a reduced ticket price for the Malmitalo concert (standard ticket €15 instead of €20). On the online ticket sales, simply select the reduced price and inform the staff at the entrance that you purchased your ticket through the French Institute of Finland. If you buy your tickets on-site, please remind the staff that you are attending through the French Institute.
