The roots of Kirsti Alho musicality reach far deeper than her studies |
|
in classical piano and voice in her native Finland. |
|
There has always been an inborn need for musical |
|
creativity in Kirsti, which expresses itself in her |
|
deeply personal interpretations and her inspired |
|
improvisations. After touring with international jazz |
|
musicians, Kirsti established herself in Germany where |
|
she has continued to broaden her repertoire from swing |
|
to modern jazz. Kirsti touches her audiences with |
|
soulful, mellow ballads; she excites them with new |
|
visions of old standards; her dynamic scatting shoots |
|
ripples of energy through the room. Kirsti`s voice |
|
moves. It glides. It soars. And then so does the |
|
listener. Kirsti has worked with many famous finnish |
|
jazz musicians and with such internationally artists as |
|
Archie Shepp, Horace Parlan, Siegfried Kessler, Horst |
|
Jankowski, Charly Antolini, Umo-Jazzorchestra and many |
|
others.
