Eclectic pianist Antti Lähdesmäki first met bass player Sá Reston in Finland, 2018, starting an intense creative collaboration that would bring them touring through Finland and Brazil. In occasion of Winter Jazz Cph 2022, they decided to reunite with flutist Lorenzo Colocci (Italy), and singer Susana Nunes (Portugal), to form the band ITALOLATINO; they will perform traditional and newly composed music from Brazil and Cuba, hopefully bringing some sun over this edition of WJC 2022!
