They bring additional rhythmic diversity to the music compared the quartet's much lauded first recording, Conclusions (TUM 21). On To Future Memories, Aaltonen presents a selection of compositions by composer, bandleader and bassist Antti Hytti (b. 1952), many of which were originally composed by Hytti for feature movies or short films in the 1980s and 1990s, with Aaltonen as a featured soloist already on the original movie versions. The compositions range from the beauty and quiet contemplation of InchUrsulaInch, InchKukunorInch and the title tune to the mystical unknown worlds of InchHiisiInch and InchHazeInch but also include Aaltonen improvising on the tenor saxophone at the top of his powers on InchReminiscenceInch and InchAll The BirdsInch.

Conclusions can be seen to reflect the long career of the Finnish tenor saxophone giant Juhani Aaltonen through ten new compositions by members of the quartet that also include pianist/harpist Iro Haarla, bassist Ulf Krokfors and drummer Reino Laine, who are all masters in their own right. On Conclusions, Aaltonen takes stock of his musical past while moving to a new, more mature level, still always placing a strong accent on free improvisation.

Illusion of a Ballad is the second recording by Finnish saxophone legend Juhani Aaltonen with his trio that also includes bassist Ulf Krokfors and drummer Tom Nekljudow. The album features nine well-remembered jazz ballads by Duke Ellington, George Gershwin, Ornette Coleman and others. Yet, the Juhani Aaltonen Trio sets out to find new, unexplored sides to the material, making the classic compositions Inchsimpler but also more complexInch in the process. This recording is another demonstration of why the Juhani Aaltonen Trio has become one of the preeminent Finnish modern jazz groups of the past decade and has also received considerable international acclaim.
