  • Tapiola Sinfonietta
    MAGNUS LINDBERG VIOLIN CONCERTO PEKKA KUUSISTO, VIOLIN & DIRECTOR JUBILEES SOUVENIR MAGNUS LINDBERG, CONDUCTOR TAPIOLA SINFONIETTA 1 Magnus Lindberg 2 nstrumental qualities have always inspired Magnus Lindberg (b. 1958). However abstract his musical ideas may Ibe and however tightly constructed their subsurface structures, his music is always instrumentally idiomatic and powerful. Often his ideas develop in an instrumental direction of their own accord; sometimes they emerge from the special properties of a particular instrument, fusing musical and instrumental innovation into a single creative act. This approach is of course heightened in concertos, which constitute an important genre in Lindberg’s output. He has written two concertos for piano (1990–94; 2012) and one each for cello (1997–99), clarinet (2001–02) and violin (2006), and other works with prominent solo parts. The Violin Concerto was written to a commission from the Lincoln Center in New York together with the Barbican Centre in London, the Casa de Música–Porto and the Swedish Chamber Orchestra and was premiered at the Mostly Mozart festival in New York in August 2006. Although the commission was specifically aimed at the 250th anniversary celebration of Mozart’s birth, Lindberg did not write a tribute with Mozart elements in it. However, the situation of the premiere had an influence on the work in the way that Lindberg used a smaller orchestra than usual. There are two oboes, two bassoons and two horns plus strings – a standard Mozart orchestra, in fact. The very fact that the ensemble is so small prompted clearer and more translucent structures than in many of Lindberg’s other orchestral works.

  • 20.10.2020 Music Listening in Finland 2020
    MUSIC LISTENING IN FINLAND 2020 A strange year Kari Tervonen, Roadmap Director, GroupM Responses collected in August 2020 We surveyed the current state of music listening in Finland for the seventh year in a row. We interviewed 1,072 Finns aged 13–75. Norstat interviewed 1,072 Finns in its consumer panel in mid-August 2020, as assigned by IFPI and Teosto. We specifically sought respondents aged 13–15 and 16–18. The key findings were weighted to represent 13–75-year- old Finnish men and women nationwide. The survey’s working group has been the same for a good while. The survey results were analysed by Kari Tervonen, GroupM’s Roadmap Director. Susanna Perämaa from Teosto and Tommi Kyyrä from IFPI Finland are the group’s music industry experts. The survey produces information in serial form on how Finns’ music listening habits are changing over the long term. Contents 1. Music listening habits 2. The effect of the coronavirus pandemic on music listening 3. The popularity of music genres 4. The most popular classical composers 5. Summary Age • Music listening habits change particularly quickly between the age groups 13–15, 16–18 and 19–25. • Also from that point on, the differences between the age groups 26–35, 36–45, 46–55, 56–65 and 66–75 are big: in listening devices, taste in music, behaviour and attitudes towards music. Streaming is still growing PART 1: Music listening habits Streaming is still growing • Listening to music in a car increased slightly (radio and streaming). • The growth of listening to music on a phone has stopped for now.
