This year I’ve been fortunate enough to be picked, again, as one as the semi finalists in the annual Montreux Solo Jazz Piano Competition in Switzerland. I participated last year as well, but without any significant result. Since this is the last chance for me, because I’m getting to old, I thought I’d give it another try with a different approach.

The competition is set for the beginning of July, and Iiro Rantala will be leading the jury. Wish me luck!
