Awake Asleep

By: Ida Alanen Trio (Dolby Atmos MKV + MP4)
Type: Digital Download
Ida Alanen’s compositions draw inspiration from the borderland between sleep and wakefulness, inviting images from the subconscious into broad daylight. The trio alternates effortlessly between carefully orchestrated compositions and the freedom of improvisation. As a pianist Ida has an exceptional sensitivity to melody and simplistic beauty, and her compositions are filled with colourful details and a rich harmonic palette. The duality of the two worlds, the dreamworld and realistic world, the conscious and the subconscious remains the main theme of the trio’s debut album Awake Asleep.

Ida Alanen Trio

Ida Alanen (b. 1994) is a young generation pianist and composer from Helsinki, Finland. She is currently based in Amsterdam, completing her master studies at the Conservatory of Amsterdam under the instruction of Harmen Fraanje and Karel Boehlee. The band's drummer Benjamin Nylund and bassist Jonathan Bäckström are emerging names in the Finnish jazz scene. The trio was formed in Helsinki during the pandemic, and since then has been working closely with Ida’s compositions. The cohesive sound of the trio is the result of three years of collaboration, and they alternate effortlessly between carefully orchestrated compositions and the freedom of improvisation.
