Other Finnish Works For Violin
"Other Finnish Works for Violin affords a new perspective on Finnish and Nordic violin music. The six composers featured on the disc are women, either Finnish or of Finnish descent, born in the mid-19th century. They speak out in a way that challenges the Late- or Neo-romantic trends in repertoire for the instrument, and they do so in styles of their own manifesting musical traditions that have previous- ly passed unnoticed – the secret garden of Western art music created by another, marginalised gender. The six composers were recognised in their day, and many were virtuoso performers, yet history has since “forgotten” them."
