Composition Competition
â??Suoni Nuovi
Autoriâ?? in Latina,
Italy (Section
1) The composition
Roma born after a
short travel in the
eternal city. The
multiple cultural,
historical and landscaped
stimuli that derive from
its ruins must touch the
mind of every visitor
dipping it and
transporting it behind in
the history: these are
the feelings that have
inspired the composition
of a
conceptualistic-descripti
ve music work, dedicated
to the places that more
meant during the
authorâ??s travel.
First part,
â??Anfiteatro
Flavioâ??, is clearly
dedicated to Colosseo. It
is so imposing and
majestic that recalls
still today the outcry of
the battles and the noise
of the iron: all that is
translate in music with
frequent changes of time
and a virtuosistic and
pressing writing. The
apex of the fight marks
in the composition a
growing culminated in a
moment of suspension and
the immediate resumption
with change of theme for
the victory moment and
its majestic
celebration. The
second part, â??Villa
Borgheseâ??, marks the
passage to a situation of
ecstasy and serenity
inspired from the beauty
and tranquillity of the
places of the famous
roman park. The
composition develops with
sweetness but are also
present dissonant notes
that recall the park
contextualizzation in the
heart of the city, with
its chaotic present and
with the urgent violence
of its past.

Guit
ar sonata A Walk to the
Mysterious Woods
(2012-13) is so far the
most extensive of the
works Kai Nieminen has
written for his own
instrument, the guitar.
The sonata features
virtuosic and delicate
timbre which is typical
of Nieminen's musical
idiom and which requires
both technical and poetic
skill of the performer.
The music invokes a
fairytale-like scene of
nature with its
references to Finnish
mythology.
Kai
Nieminen's guitar sonata
is in four movements
which follow each other
attacca. The form of the
work resembles the
traditional sonata form:
exposition (A Walk with
Birdsong) - development
(Along the Brook and
Song(s) from the Arctic)
- recapitulation
(Return). The dark chords
of the beginning, the
pressing silence and the
icy-sounding harmony
created by the E flat
bass line evoke an image
of a winter forest. As if
following birdsong, the
music carries the
listener through various
landscapes and moods.
Birdsong takes the
listener to a brook,
which then carries the
traveller to the ancient
Sami joik, a traditional
form of chant, and allows
him or her to bask in the
serenity of natural
beauty in a moment where
the past and present
meet.

Kai
Nieminen's Fragmental
Reflections (2018) draws
on the melancholy mood of
the Finnish folk song
Tein mina pillin
pajupuusta (I made a
willow whistle) familiar
to most Finns. The
emotional scale of this
10-minute guitar fantasy
ranges from a nostalgic
striving for beauty to
discordantly disruptive
moments.
