FREE! Eesti Jazziauhinnad 2021 // Joel Remmel Trio feat Liisi Koikson, Jukka Eskola, Aleksander Paal "Kevad"

Joel Remmel Trio celebrates their 10th
anniversary! On the spring of 2012, Joel Remmel Trio presented their debut album “Lumekristall” at the Jazzkaar festival. Now they have released their 5th studio album “Kevad”. This album is the concluding part of a series of short albums, where the EP “Puhkus” with Jukka Eskola was released last summer and the EP “Autumn” with Aleksander Paal at the beginning of December 2021.

The new album contains a selection of songs from previously released digital short albums, in addition, the new album also features Liisi Koikson’s beautiful voice, loved by both the audience and critics. The album mainly features the work of the band leader Joel Remmel, of which only one piece is from an earlier creative period, the rest of the music is a fresh compositions written during the previous year.

The music on the album is diverse and rich in sound. While the short album “Autumn” brought ballads to the listener and “Holiday” sounded like one real holiday should sound – light and effortless, the new songs add to the palette the harmony of more instruments and the lionic clarity and brightness. The overarching motive is the joy of making music together, which is increasingly valued in the light of the past year.

Alongside Joel Remmel, the trio includes Heikko Remmel on double bass and Ramuel Tafenau on drums. In addition to the aforementioned guests, the new album also features Markus Erermann’s flute playing and Mattias Vihmann’s horn sounds.
