The material for Jyrki Linjama's Allerheiligentag cycle is a Finnish folk chorale for All Saints' Day (no. 146 in the Finnish Hymn Book). The first work in the cycle is a string trio (2007), the second a piece for orchestra (2009), and the fourth and fifth are solo works for viola da gamba (2018) and Sonata for violin solo (2019). The composer tells: The choice of topic and material was originally influenced by the place where the string trio would be premiered – the old church on the island of Seili (Själö) in the Turku archipelago. The bleak history of the mental hospital on the island invited images of suffering and death. I got so attached to the fine, bleak melody that this series of works began to emerge. Lasting 17 minutes, the sonata for solo violin has three movements, all of them embracing the folk choral material and Béla Bartók’s influence in different ways. It was premiered by Kaija Saarikettu at the Kaustinen Chamber Music Festival in 2020.

The title Whistle for a Penny can have different meanings, but brings especially to mind the difficult relationship between art and money… After a short introduction, the main theme is heard. This theme is an excellent tune to whistle, by the way. After lots of variation in the instrumentation, as well as contrasting melodies and themes, the finale sees a return to the opening bars of the composition. Kunst en geld? Helaas gaat dat niet altijd even goed samen...En dat is waar deze titel naar verwijst. Maar ook naar het feit dat uw publiek met dit werk uitstekend kan meefluiten! Na een korte inleiding horen we het hoofdthema; hétmoment om mee te doen! Na veel afwisseling in de instrumentatie, contrasterende melodieën en thema’s keren we terug naar de inleidende maten.Der Titel Whistle for a Penny (‘Pfeife für einen Pfennig’) kann auf verschiedene Weise gedeutet werden, ist aber auch sicherlich ein Verweis auf das problematische Verhältnis zwischen Kunst und Geld...Nach einer kurzen Einleitung erklingt in diesem Konzertmarsch das Hauptthema, das man ausgezeichnet mitpfeifen kann. Nach viel Abwechslung in der Instrumentation sowie kontrastierenden Melodien und Themen kehrt der Schluss zu den einleitenden Takten zurück.Eine runde Sache!Une courte introduction précède l’entrée du thème principal. Celui-ci est un air que l’on peut siffler facilement (whistle signifiant siffler“ ou sifflement“ en anglais, tandis que pennywhistle est un fl teau).La mélodie suivante est exécutée par le registre grave de l’orchestre, puis le thème principal revient dans diverses instrumentations. Dans le trio, nous entendons un thème lyrique qui précède un tutti. La marche s’achève avec une coda qui rappelle allègrement les premières mesures de la pièce.Una breve introduzione precede il tema principale, un’aria che si può fischiare facilmente (whistle significa appunto fischiare, mentre il pennywhistle è una specie di flauto). La melodia che segue è affidata al registro grave dell’orchestra che anticipa la riesposizione del tema iniziale in diverse strumentazioni. Nel trio, sentiamo un tema lirico che precede un tutti. La marcia termina con una coda che riprende allegramente le prime misure del brano.
