Titled Finland’s number one jazz singer, Aili Ikonen has released four solo albums, the most recent of which, Helposti palavaa, to be released in February 2023, deals with figuring out one’s place in this time, in different roles: as a person, a woman, part of society, part of a larger continuum, part of a chain of generations. Ikonen brings her trusted quintet with her, with whom she has been cooperating for 10 years.
