Kai
Nieminen's music has been
described as often
constructed according to
a narrative logic, as
fantasy journeys in
imaginary or dream-like
worlds. Most of his works
have an extra-musical
stimulus, alluded to in
their titles. They are
not, however, really
programmatic music, being
constructed according to
their own musical laws.
The titles do
nevertheless reflect the
original stimuls and
provide something of a
guideline to the
listening experience. The
initial inspiration may
be in literature or art,
or equally well in an
urban streetscape or
nature. The
virtuosic Hymnos II
challenges its player
with quick staccato
motifs and heroic
melodies in the
instrument's upper
register.

Playing from
the Core is a new method
for practicing the French
horn. With an in-depth
understanding of the
traditions and history of
French horn technique,
Tommi Hyytinen brings new
perspectives to
instrumental practice by
examining the interaction
of mind and body and
incorporating these
insights into his method.
The body is perhaps a
musician's primary
instrument, and it is
important to become
intimately acquainted
with this instrument. A
thorough understanding of
the body makes many
musical and technical
challenges easier to
overcome. Hyytinen also
provides comprehensive
advice on preparing for a
performance and on
overcoming stage fright.
For instance,
understanding the
physiology of stress and
performance-related
nerves helps us better to
understand nervousness as
a natural state. By
employing a range of
physical and mental
exercises, we learn to
control nervous reactions
and turn them into
something that, rather
than hindering, can in
fact help and improve our
performances. In addition
to presenting a wealth of
factual information and
physical exercises, the
book contains many
informative
illustrations, playing
exercises, and an etude
exploring different
aspects of French horn
technique. Through the
presentation of
information, exercises
and examples, Playing
from the Core brings
students to a realisation
that everyone can improve
on the technical and
musical challenges they
face. Tommi Hyytinen is
an experienced
professional musician and
teacher, and he instructs
musicians in the holistic
use of the body. The
exercises presented in
the book form part of his
own daily practice
routine and teaching
material. Tommi thus
manages to explain and
show us the benefit of
both body and mental
exercises in preparation
for musical performance.
He shares all his wisdom
so generously that I have
no doubt that all
performing artists,
especially brass and wind
players as well as
singers will profit
enormously from reading
it. (Radovan Vlatkovic)
