Joni Vierre is a Finnish composer, improviser, and musician whose work exists at the meeting point of world traditions and contemporary expression. Blending elements of jazz, rock, and intercultural collaborative music-making, Vierre creates music that is firmly rooted in presence, deep listening, and human connection.

Yhtä
‘Listening to what unites us’

Yhtä explores the intersection of original composition and improvisation as a means to recognise human connection. In a time where we are surrounded by social and cultural polarization, the music seeks to uncover what brings us together through listening, interaction, and shared expression.
