  • COMPLETE Joonas Kokkonen Inauguratio
    Joonas Kokkonen (b.1921) composed his orchestral piece Inauguratio in r971, after the slmphonic sketchesand cello concerto andjust before the Foirth symphon;y(all three pieces are available on BIS-cD-468). The piece was a commission from the Helsinki Festival and the intention was for it to be performed at the opening of the 'Inauguration'indicates). Finlandia Hall (as the title The Hall was not completed in time, however, and the composition was premidred at a Helsinki Festival concerr in the House of Culture. According to the composer the work deals more with the inausuration of a person's work or life than with the opening of a building. It has not been Kokkonen's custom to compose two works of the same genre in direct succession; he has always wished to examine the material from a fresh standpoint. The only exception to his principle is the second sltmphonlt, written immediately after the Firsrslmphony (BIS-cD-485). According to the composer, the basic idea of the work dates back to the period he spent working on the Firsr 'simply S1mphon1,and he had to set about this work-,, even thotieh 'promised'and two other already sketched works were already waiting their turn. In his 'take suond slmphonT Kokkonen wanted to further those ideas which alreadv appeared in the first Slmphony'. Much of the secondslmphonl was composed on the shore of Lake Zririch in the small village of Herrlieberg, where the composer worked thanks to an arts scholarship from UNESCo from rhe beginning of Argt,rt 1960 until the end of the fbllowingJanuary.

(Parašas) (Vardas, pavardė) Summary This final master degree work is about Finnish composers’ organ music. Relevance of the topic the organ music of the Finnish composers is not thoroughly analyzed in Lithuania. It is one of the main reasons to start writing this topic in the master degree work. It can be said that the Finnish composers’ organ music topic has been little studied in Finland itself, because there is little literature about it. Especially, the problem is, that books about Finnish organ music are not so much translated in English language. Novelty of work Finland, because of its language, is a relatively closed country for foreigners, and it is not easy to access literature sources and get information, especially on organ issues. Thus, the novelty of the work is based on the chosen topic, referring to original sources in Finland: books, CD descriptions, and some information on web pages that are available in Library of Sibelius Academy only to students studying in Finland.

  • Finnish Choral Music by Jeffrey Sandborg
    Finnish Choral Music By Jeffrey Sandborg Jeffrey Sandborg is Assistant Professor of Music and tion is a set of twenty "Piae Cantiones" arrangements for Chairman of the Department of Music at Pikeville College, mixed chorus by Heikki Klemetti. Pikeville, Kentucky. Between 1978 and 1979 Sandborg studied in Helsinki, Finland at both the Sibelius Academy and Helsinki University as an ITT Fellow. His D.M.A. in choral music is in progress at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Finnish choral music rarely has been performed in the United States nor has much been written in the English language on the subject. The repertory remains largely unex­ amined not for lack of interest but, for lack of ready informa­ tion and materials. The Finnish language presents a for­ midable barrier to any kind of bibliographic inquiry, and ~:;fr:ff$~*lE~:[f. translations ofeven the simplest Finnish text settings nearly ==~: ~~=t=~~~::;_L3..:==::::-= 0,. 1111 llurU1/J ~ mo hgger in pr"fi1'i 0<\1 (om e'olrn are impossible for a non-speaker or for someone without ac­ (tijncr cess to a Finn. Contributing to the problem is that Finland has not been a country to propagate its music outside its borders. Further, the principal music publisher, Fazer, relies on an agent in the U.S. to advertise and distribute its publications.
