Radio
Romania Big Band featuring
Pauliina May Pauliina
May is invited through EBU
(European Broadcasting
Union)
to perform in Bucharest as
a soloist of the Radio
Romania Big Band directed
by George Natsis.
Together with the Big Band
she will be performing the
music of Finnish composer
Jukka Linkola.
The concert will be
broadcasted on the
Euroradio satellite
network Friday 26.1.2007.
See info below. According
to the press article of
Euroradio, it has around
2.4 million listeners from
throughout the world.
Last year Pauliina May
performed with the Radio
Romania Big Band an
afro-cuban repertoire
directed and arranged by
conductor
Jere Laukkanen.
See photos.
"I
feel very honored to be
one of the invited
guests of Societatea
Romana de
Radiodifuziune, part of
the concert serie
“Bucharest- city of
music”.
It is my second time to
stand as a vocalist in
front of the great Big
Band of Radio Romania.
Last time we played
music from Afro-Cuban
roots conducted and
arranged by Jere
Laukkanen.
I had an extremely
enjoyable one week of
rhythm and swing with
the musicians of the Big
band of Radio Romania.
This time I am proud to
bring along music from
Finland, written by a
Finnish composer, Jukka
Linkola.
I am looking forward to
this interesting
European crossover
between Finland and
Romania and thrillingly
waiting to hear Finnish
music played by the Big
Band of Radio Romania.
As composer Jukka
Linkola says with his
own words: “Music is not
just a string of notes
one after the other but
moods and feelings, life
in general.” (article of
Jarmo Sermilä: Jukka
Linkola in Profile) I
will bring my own little
world of moods and
feelings with my voice
and I am sure the
powerful Big Band of
Radio Romania will
response to me with
theirs!"

In
spring 2002, Pauliina
May met the Dutch
composer and pianist
Izak Boom in Holland.
Izak was looking for
ideas to do something
with different elements
of world music. Pauliina
May introduced him to
the literature of
Kalevala, to the poetry
of Kanteletar and to the
beloved Eino Leino. He
was enthusiastically
getting involved in the
deep-rooted stories of
Finnish literature and
captured the feelings of
the texts with his
harmonical ideas from
European, Middle-East
and American folk
styles, as well as
Gypsy-Swing and
Classical Impressionism.
Together Pauliina and
Izak explored their
skills and talents and
this led to the
formation of AINA.
