Eesti Jazziauhinnad 2026 / Bianca Rantala, Valter Soosalu & UMO Helsinki Jazz Orchestra „Gigil Marathon” (Eesti–Soome)
04/30 18:00
Tallinn
The Annual Celebration of the Estonian Jazz Awards is followed by a new work by Jazz Composer of the Year 2025, Bianca Rantala. Gigil Marathon has been composed especially for the UMO Helsinki Jazz Orchestra and harpejji virtuoso Valter Soosalu. The concert programme combines a contemporary big band aesthetic with multi-layered fusion harmonies and rhythmic innovation. The harpejji plays a multifaceted role – at times a solo instrument, at others an accompaniment, and occasionally an integral part of the orchestra’s overall texture. UMO’s world-class instrumentalists also play a central role, and Rantala skillfully brings out both their individual and collective strengths. The result is a unique, memorable, and richly varied whole.
