It Takes Two To Tango is the first joint recording from Finnish jazz veterans Jukka Perko on saxophones and pianist Iiro Rantala; this lyrically dense discourse on the topic of love in all its facets is an an homage to their musical homeland and the uniting power of jazz. It Takes Two To Tango focusses a central musical point of reference in Perko and Rantala’s musical language: the tango. Surprisingly, Finland is second only to Argentina on the list of countries where the tango plays a big part in popular culture, having been ubiquitous in public Finnish life since the first wave of European immigrants entered the country just before World War I.
