The Finnish pianist, a multiple first-prize winner, including at the prestigious Leeds Competition, has established himself as one of the leading musicians of his generation. Renowned for his rich palette of sound colours, refined and lyrical phrasing, and expressive intelligence, he is consistently praised for his artistry. His recordings of Beethoven’s final three sonatas (AVI-Music) and the Beethoven Triple Concerto (with The Knights, Colin Jacobsen, and Jan Vogler, SONY) particularly highlight his exceptional interpretative depth.
