About

UNIKO features Grammy winning Kronos Quartet together with a Finnish duo, accordion adventurer Kimmo Pohjonen and sampling guru Samuli Kosminen.

UNIKO was commissioned by Kronos in 2003 and premièred live at the Helsinki Festival in 2004.

UNIKO is highlighted by Pohjonen’s electrified and MIDI-fied accordion with Kosminen’s electronic percussion devices which reproduce his own accordion samples and his samples of Kronos’ instruments. These samples, together with live strings and electric accordion plus effects and manipulations create a new, multi-dimensional sound world.

“Uniko is like an ocean tide coming in. Big waves of sound build in complexity, animation and sometimes sheer frenzy...” The New York Times
