Conjuring images of the impenetrable and obscure, Opaque is a good description of the mysterious feel of Finland’s Pylkkanen’s brand new CD. The opaqueish feeling is a recurrent theme in many of the tunes on the album, occasionally in the guise of an ever present density, or darkness of harmony, or mixed with the moods of autumn and winter. Based in Helsinki, this accomplished saxophonist in Finland studied jazz at the Sibelius Academy. He has developed his own sense of composition, creating lyrical melodies and colorful harmonies.
