Heikki Sarmanto and Henrik Otto Donner: Creating Finnish jazz
Jazz composer and musician Heikki Sarmanto was one of his generation’s foremost figures in the 1960s, when Finnish jazz moved away from the traditional towards a more original sound. Another Finnish jazz revolutionary who has been unconcerned about music genres is Henrik Otto Donner, although the two men’s approaches have differed.
