Verneri Pohjola
"Verneri Pohjola has the potential to become an international jazz star." (Allaboutjazz.com)
Born in 1977, Verneri Pohjola is the son of the Finnish jazz legend Pekka Pohjola. Similar to his role model Miles Davis, he is known for his sense of space in music, long melodic arcs, and a virtuosic handling of subtle nuances.
Equally fascinating are Verneri Pohjola's abilities as a composer and arranger, ranging from highly unconventional quartet sounds to complex arrangements for large ensembles.
