Debut concert / comissioned work ‘Chimeraxis’

Koncertkirken Vinterjazz, 2025

”The Finnish artist Johanna Elina Sulkunen, who lives in Copenhagen, seems capable of handling anything that appears new, different, and avant-garde. More than that, she can effortlessly combine seemingly incompatible elements on a personal, individual level in an organic way.  Algorithm-assisted digital composition, traditional jazz vocals, free improvisation, highly reflective sound abstraction, and an entirely unprocessed voice—often all within the same track. On her third solo album, Coexistence (Tila, May 24), Sulkunen adds yet another level of complexity to her electronic avant-garde pop by skillfully integrating documentary interview recordings and samples of precarious, unheard voices into the mix. ”. Frank P. Eckert 26. Juni 2024. Motherboard

”In this third part of the Sonority trilogy, she listens to marginalized voices—migrants and homeless people. These are individuals who imagine a reality where coexistence is not associated with trouble, where borders are not boundless. Voices dreaming that “Home” and “Happiness” are not unreachable in “Beyondlands.”.  Bad Alchemy. De

”The sound texture weaves together electronics, electroacoustic elements, minimalism, playfulness, sunlit ambient music, glitch, and techno-logos with a sparkling effect of natural connection. The coexistence addressed is a political issue. The one question was asked: “What would you say if the whole world would listen?!” Vibrant with voices physiologically fused with the music, the questions and answers (beyond linguistic comprehension) resonate strongly when played through a good sound system at a high volume — more recommended than listening through headphones. It is precisely the human presence that we follow, and that follows us throughout the entire listening experience. The two minutes of ‘What Do We Do For Others’ fade out, leaving us in a silence laden with questions hanging in the air, unanswered but urgent.” Dionisio Capuano. Blow UP. It.
