In fact, his single-movement Seventh Symphony Op. 105 (1924) and the tone poem Tapiola Op. 112 (1926) demonstrate just how close these two genres came to merging in his output. Tone poems linked Sibelius to the radical Romantic composers of the 19th century: programme music allowed composers to expand their musical idiom and to break out of the bounds of formal structures.

  • The Role of the Kalevala in Finnish Culture and Politics URPO VENTO Finnish Literature Society, Finland
    Nordic Journal of African Studies 1(2): 82–93 (1992) The Role of the Kalevala in Finnish Culture and Politics URPO VENTO Finnish Literature Society, Finland The question has frequently been asked: would Finland exist as a nation state without Lönnrot's Kalevala? There is no need to answer this, but perhaps we may assume that sooner or later someone would have written the books which would have formed the necessary building material for the national identity of the Finns. During the mid 1980s, when the 150th anniversary of the Kalevala was being celebrated in Finland, several international seminars were held and thousands of pages of research and articles were published. At that time some studies appeared in which the birth of the nation state was examined from a pan-European perspective. SMALL NATION STATES "The nation state - an independent political unit whose people share a common language and believe they have a common cultural heritage - is essentially a nineteenth-century invention, based on eighteenth-century philosophy, and which became a reality for the most part in either the late nineteenth or early twentieth century. The circumstances in which this process took place were for the most part marked by the decline of great empires whose centralised sources of power and antiquated methods of administrations prevented an effective response to economic and social change, and better education, with all the aspirations for freedom of thought and political action that accompany such changes." Thus said Professor Michael Branch (University of London) at a conference on the literatures of the Uralic peoples held in Finland in the summer of 1991.

  • THE MERRY WIDOW Music by Franz Lehar English Dialogue by Gershom Clark Morningstar Lyrics by Adrian Ross and Ronald Orenstein
    THE MERRY WIDOW Music by Franz Lehar English Dialogue by Gershom Clark Morningstar Lyrics by Adrian Ross and Ronald Orenstein FEATURES OF THIS SHOW The Merry Widow was a major hit in the United States, two years after it opened in Vienna. It boasted an English translation by Adrian Ross, a major lyricist in England. Although other librettos have been written for it since, Ross’s lyrics hold up very well, when modified for modern audiences. They convey the language that marks the period that is so important for the style of the show. Gershom Morningstar was commissioned by the Guild to rework the dialog, which was the show's weakest feature. New elements were added for plot depth and to increase the humor Obviously a star vehicle for a soprano as the Widow, the tenor De Rosillon and the soprano Valencienne have glorious duet material. The role of Danilo is one of the few chances for a baritone to be the romantic lead. The character moving the plot is Baron Zeta, who may be primarily an actor, as he sings little. There are good opportunities for supporting characters as well. CAST REQUIREMENTS Widow Hanna Glavari, soprano Marquis Cascada, baritone Count Danilo Danilovitch, baritone M. St. Brioche, a dandy, tenor Baron Mirko Zeta, actor General Cromov, actor, chorus Betush, his secretary, male or female actor Olga, his wife, actor, chorus Valencienne, his wife, soprano General Bogdanovitch, actor, chorus Camille, her lover, tenor Sylvaine, his wife, actor, chorus Zozo, the lead grisette, mezzo-soprano Praskovia Pritschitz, actor, chorus Six Grizettes, dancers Folk dancers, act 2 Chorus of embassy officials and their wives MUSICAL NUMBERS Overture........................................................................................
