Ett samtal om finsk musik och musikkultur i fem delar med Thella Johnson, Mattias Björkas och Love Antell. I avsnittet: Rosita Luu, Maustetytöt, Ykä Matti ja Liisa, PMMP, Värttinä, Ismo Alanko, Rickard Eklund, Kaija Saariaho, Kalevala, Kanteletar. De träffades för att göra låtar ihop. Under tiden växte ett samtal fram om den finska musiken och musikkulturen och om texterna. Så de beslöt att samlas runt ett studiobord och dela med sig.I det här avsnittet av Vi lyssnar på Finland:*Vaggvisor för vargtimmen – Finlands starka vaggvisetradition hörs i den samtida musiken. Och det blir stundom ganska mörkt i text och ton. Thella undersöker om detta beror på att de äldsta karelska vaggvisorna som återfinns i Kalevala och Kanteletar samsas på sidorna med berättelser om våld och ond, bråd död. Mattias och Love vill betona det drastiska draget i musiklyrik från grupper som syskonduon Maustetytöt.*När Finland föll från trädet - En självbild i förändring. Love ser en utveckling av teman om ”vad Finland är” i det sena 1900-talets och det tidiga 2000-talets musik, och tar avstamp i Ismo Alankos hit Kun suomi putos puusta (När Finland föll från trädet).Bonusämne: Runometern, det gamla versmåttet, och arvet från Kalevala i nutida finsk pop – Thella provar att recitera ur det gamla dikteposet och systerverket till Kalevala, Kanteletar, till Maustetytöts låt – och får alla i studion att häpna över resultatet.Musik som spelas i avsnittet:(Intro): Våren – BottenvikenLoistava tulevaisuus – Rosita LuuEivät enkelitkään ilman siipiä lennä - MaustetytötYkä, Matti ja Liisa – Tuu tuu tupakkarullaPMMP - KatinkaVärttinä - PojatonIsmo Alanko – Kun Suomi putos puustaRickard Eklund - FinlandKaija Saariaho – Papillon V ur Sept Papillons.

Synopsis The fact that a new opera might debut at the Salzburg Festival in Austria is not in itself an unusual occurrence. But in August of the year 2000, the new opera in question was "L'Amour de Loin" or "Distant Love" by the Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho – making it the first opera by a female composer ever to be staged at the prestigious international Festival, and one that opened to rave reviews. Born in Helsinki in 1952, Saariaho now lives with her husband and children in Paris. She has said that though she loves Helsinki, she's more comfortable in a city where she is not a celebrity. "I'm too well recognized in Finland," says Saariaho. "When I say this to colleagues in America, they think it's fantastic that there is a country where contemporary music composers can be esteemed public personalities." Speaking of summer-time opera premieres, Richard Wagner's "Die Walküre" had its first performance as part of his "Ring Cycle" on today's date in 1876, at Wagner's own theater in Bayreuth, a small town in Southern Germany. Some early critics thought building a big theater in such an out-of-the-way place was a monumental act of folly, but Wagnerites have been making the midsummer pilgrimage there for over 125 years – despite the lack of air-conditioning in Wagner's theater. Appropriately, it's some of the warmest music from "Die Walküre" – the "Magic Fire" scene that brings the opera to its close.

Synopsis Today’s date in 1913 marks the birthday of the American composer and musicologist George Perle, who won the Pulitzer Prize for music in 1986. In a 1985 interview, Perle vividly recalled his first musical experience, an encounter with Chopin’s Étude in F minor, played by an aunt. “It literally paralyzed me,” said Perle, “I was extraordinarily moved and acutely embarrassed at the same time, because there were other people in the room, and I could tell that nobody else was having the same sort of reaction I was.” In his own lyrical and well-crafted music, Perle employed what he called “12-tone tonality,” a middle path between rigorous atonality and traditional, tonal-based music. Whether tonal or not, for Perle music was both a logical and an emotional language. Perle once made this telling distinction between the English language and the language of music: “Reading a novel is altogether different from reading a newspaper, but it's all language. If you go to a concert, you have some kind of reaction to it. If the newspaper is Chinese, you can't understand it. But if you hear something by a Chinese composer, if it's playful, for instance, you understand.” Music Played in Today's Program George Perle (1915 - 2009) Serenade No. 3 for Piano and Chamber Orchestra (1983) Richard Goode, p; Music Today Ensemble; Gerard Schwarz, cond.

Hvernig getum við breytt heiminum - og hvað þýðir það í raun og veru? Í ár eru 100 ár liðin frá því Barn náttúrunnar, fyrsta útgefna skáldsaga Halldórs Laxness, kom út. Við ræðum við Hauk Ingvarsson, bókmenntafræðing um þetta verk og þann menningarheim sem hún spratt upp úr. Við heyrum einnig brot úr bréfi sem skáldið skrifaði til fyrri konu sinnar, Ingu Einarsdóttur, árið 1927, sem og upptöku úr safni sjónvarpsins þar sem hann ræðir um bókmenntaumfjöllun í dagblöðunum. Guðni Tómasson fjallar um kínversk-bandarísk tónlistarungmenni sem vöktu fyrst athygli í Bandaríkjunum fyrir tæplega 60 árum og hvernig þau hafa síðan reynt að bæta heiminn, en það eru þau Yo-Yo og Yeou-Cheng Ma.   Júlía Margrét Einarsdóttir flytur pistil um heimspeki Múmínálfanna og eigin bölsýni.

I am so thrilled to bring you this Meet the Composer Bonus Track! We are extremely lucky to present this recording of Kaija Saariaho's piano trio Light and Matter, taped live at the Coolidge Auditorium in the Library of Congress, just this past May 22 by the world-class ensemble of violinist Jennifer Koh, cellist Anssi Karttunen and pianist Ieva Jokubaviciute. It's lovely, colorful, and you are some of the first people to hear it... after Justice Ginsburg, of course! The composer’s program note is below: "The starting point for the music is light kinetic energy, which is then developed into more dramatic gestures and rapid exchanges among the three instruments. The piece advances in spinning motion, moving from the original luminous fabric into more thematic patterns or towards the inertia of slow choral textures, 11 before returning into the original weightlessness and starting a new flickering spin. As a result, we hear three musical elements–kinetic texture, thematic motives and slowly moving choral material–in constantly changing combinations and orchestrations. I wrote this piece in New York, while watching from my window the changing light and colors of Morningside Park. Besides providing me with the name for the piece, perhaps that continuous transformation of light on the glinting leaves and the immobile trunks of the solid trees became the inspiration for the musical materials in this piece." I hope you enjoy!-Nadia Sirota Light and Matter (2014) is published by Chester Music, Ltd.
