At the Hanko Music Festival pre-event on July 1st we will get to experience Mikko Sarvanne 3+3, a six-man configuration of artists from Mikko Sarvanne Hip Company. Mikko Sarvanne 3+3 plays songs composed by composer-conductor Mikko Sarvanne. The music combines and unstoppable force of swing, touching melodies and mindscapes inspired by the streets of Helsinki. The music conveys the freedom and surprising developments that brings forth the personalities of each musician. At their Hanko Casino concert the group will play classic Hip Company tunes arranged for this smaller configuration as well as new material exclusively composed for this event.
