Iiro Rantala is one of the leading European jazz pianists of our time. The Finn is "a natural phenomenon on keys" (German Jazz magazine Jazzthing); an all-rounder of whom New York-based pianist and arranger Gil Goldstein quite rightly said: "Iiro Rantala is a pianistic sensation who makes the strongest case I know to believe in reincarnation, because his pianistic technique and musical sensitivity speak of depths that appear impossible to have been achieved in this lifetime alone". Rantala is a player of crisp elocution and succinct vision, and as a composer he’s prone to sweet, shapely melodies and wisps of gospel.“
