Iiro Rantala - Solo piano

The solo recording “My Working Class Hero” is a dialogue with many dimensions: between Rantala and the instrument, between the room and its acoustics, with jazz legacy and pop history, and plainly between the pianist and his icon John Lennon. Lennon's music is for him completely current and at the same time timelessly important. Rantala says: “The key word here is sincerity. John Lennon believed in the things he sang about. He believed that people can live in peace on this wonderful planet, but that we are unfortunately far removed from that Utopia. That is why these songs awaken in the younger generations the same emotions that I had when I performed that song at school back in the 1980's. Lennon's star will shine on brightly for ever.”
