"TASO is an amateur orchestra also in the original meaning of the word from Latin amātor ('lover'), as passion and love for music were conveyed in its interpretations." ❤️

A lovely review by Kikka Holmberg in #Kulttuuritoimitus of our concert last week, with a surprise mention of "Carol Chenin timpanitaide", 讓我受寵若驚！

With 3 international & 3 domestic trips in the next 55 days (till June 30), I'm only in Tampere for 11 of those days, one of which is tomorrow at our "Echoes of the North" concert! Tampere University Hall, May 7 @ 19:00 - see you there!

Can't believe I've been with the TASO #orchestra for 15 years. Which means some of those sticks are more than 30 years old 😅 I think I was a better percussionist in my teens, but I certainly have a deeper appreciation for the music & the playing as I got older. Here's to the next 15 years! 😆

I provided the sound effects for winding up the gears of a mechanical doll with a #ratchet in this week's "Opera Gala" concert with #orkesteriTASO and #TAMKmusiikki.

"Orkesterissa jokainen on ainutlaatuinen" - everyone in the orchestra is unique, a lovely article about the #orchestra I play in. I was interviewed along with 2 of my orchestra mates and conductor. Post in #Finnish: https://taso.fi/wordpress/orkesteri/orkesterissa-jokainen-on-ainutlaatuinen/
