Tauno
Marttinen (1912–2008)
studied in Viipuri and
later in Helsinki at the
Helsinki Conservatoire.
His piano teachers were
Ilmari Hannikainen and
Selim Palmgren, but he
soon became increasingly
interested in composing.
Marttinen was also the
conductor of the
Hämeenlinna City
Orchestra in 1949−1958
and the founder and
principal of the
Hämeenlinna Music
Institute.
Marttin
en started his composing
career in late Romantic
vein. However, his first
concerts in the 1940s met
with criticism since the
winds of Modernism had
already landed in
Finland. He then became
interested in Dodecaphony
and studied under
Vladimir Vogel in Ascona
but later abandoned
strict dodecaphony and
found his own, personal
style incorporating
elements from
Neo-classicism and
free-tonality with a hint
of mysticism – he was
called the Shaman of
Hämeenlinna (his
hometown).
Tauno
Marttinen was an
incredibly productive
composer; he wrote around
four hundred works with
opus numbers as well as a
wealth of other pieces.
His oeuvre includes 10
symphonies, concertos for
various solo instruments,
operas as well as vocal,
chamber and instrumental
works. Many of
Marttinen’s pieces have
become popular standard
repertoire, such as the
piano piece Kimalluksia
(Gleams).
