Welcome, nice to see You!
I’m a cellist and composer. My music making is motivated by emotions, aesthetics both beautiful and harsh, energy, and cross-border experimentality. My work consists of cello playing, composition, theatre productions, recordings, programming and teaching. I enjoy giving the audience a chance to interact with my works and performances.

The work is a sound installation that the installation guest can interact with. One mayrecord a short sound clip, for example a whistle or a handclap and experience how theMax/MSP patch starts to produce music based on only this single sound. The processmirrors the changes a seed goes through as it matures into a tree.
New Music for Flute and Cello
Together with my dear Anna-Sofia Kallio, we organised a tour playing Finnish and Icelandic music for flute and cello. The concerts were in Turku, Tampere, Helsinki, and Forssa (x2).

I was a music coach for the students of basic education in arts in Forssa in a play they wrote and composed themselves. In addition, I wrote arrangements and some additional compositions for the play.
