Aino Eerola is a musician-composer. Her recent focus has been jazz, but she also works in the professional fields of classical, tango, electroacoustic, folk and pop music. Aino has performed her own music with various groups in Finland and abroad. Many bandleaders/producers turn to Aino when searching for a violinist who is able to mingle and improvise between different music genres, still maintaining the strength of each style, especially when speaking of jazz, tango and classical music.

Aino has composed film music, played the violin in the albums of many known pop artists and done string arrangements for pop songs. Mimix is a great environment especially for this kind of work since there are great facilities and so many possibilities for co-operation.
