Symphony No. 8 for Orchestra (2011) by Per Nørgård. Premiered on September 19 2013 by the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra and John Storgårds. Programme note: The first movement opens with sculptural rising and falling scales. Visually the sound may call to mind say spirals or ziggurats (temple towers). Brisk music leads to the climax of the movement. The second movement is slow and sensually melodious and has three interludes of greater timbral melodic action. The third movement begins very restlessly but towards the climax thetempo gradually begins to accelerate. An oscillating pianissimo murmur ends the movement – and the symphony. Symphony no. 8 is commissioned by Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra and is besides the Orchestra dedicated to the conductor John Storgårds. Per Nørgård (2012)

The Full Score of Saariaho's Verblendungen for Orchestra and Tape. The piece is dedicated to Esa-Pekka Salonen who conducted the premiere performance in Helsinki Finland with the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra in April 1984. With both orchestra and tape working in opposite directions of the tonal spectrum this is a fantastic and expressive work that balances the contrast the two elements. Despite these tonal differences the tape and orchestra join together in an inseparable sound world and form a breath-taking orchestral piece that moves through jagged grainy sounds to smoother more reflective moods.

The hardback edition of Magnus Lindberg's Kraft (1983–85) - for Soloists and Orchestra with live Electronics. KRAFT was premiered at the Helsinki Festival by the Toimii Ensemble and the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen on 4 September 1985. KRAFT was also the recipient of the Nordic Music Prize 1988. All the musical material of the piece has been prepared with a micro-computer with programmes written in FORTH allowing a very flexible control of rhythm and chord processes. The programme is based on a formalization of rules for creation of rhythmic events gestures and temporal processes and an environment allowing a graphical output for metric notation. Similar rule-based programmes control the creation of harmonic material by a comparison to previously defined and accepted chordal successions given by the composer. The control of amplification and spatialization of the soloists during the performance is done with an application written in PreFORM and running on a Macintosh computer allowing a precise control of movement in the hall in real time.

Commissioned by the first Sibelius Conductor's Competition held in Helsinki in May 1995 as an obligatory piece to be rehearsed by all the competitors Arena was performed in its totality at the annual Avanti! Chamber Orchestra'sfestival in Porvoo (Finland). Thematic thinking has never been a main feature in Lindberg's music but here horizontal lines (one would not yet dare to call them melodies) gain some independence for example in ornamental figuresand in the intense cello solo around the middle of the piece. Arena also reveals some clearly new material - Lindberg has talked about Beethoven-like formal thinking referring to a passage where the sense of movement seems toaccelerate to an extreme so that finally one perceives only a motionless surface. Another new element - which was already used to some extent at the warmly hovering ending of Aura - is the almost romantic sound world and thesuspension of the harmonies in the final climax which can make one think of Mahler and Berg or Lindberg's grand predecessor and compatriot Sibelius.This is the Score published by Chester Music; the duration of thepieces is approximately 16 minutes.

Jean Sibelius completed this work in February 1923 and conducted the premiere in Helsinki on February 19 of that same year. His first reference to the work in 1918 described it as 'wild and passionate in character. Dark with pastoral contrasts. Probably in 4 movements...intensifying in a dark orchestral swell [until] the main theme is drowned.' At the same time he cautioned that his plan could change — and how it did! — 'depending on the way my musical thinking develops. I am always a slave to my themes and obey their demands.'
