Title: Roine Rautio (1934-1960): Symphony in D minor (1960) Post by: guest377 on March 21, 2018, 05:12:15 am https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DJwNeToAMg
This is a very rare composition, that recently appeared on youtube...enjoy! Roine Rautio was born on July 20, 1934, in Petrozavodsk (Soviet Karelia) as the youngest of the three sons of Finnish-born composer Karl (or Kalle) Rautio, who had moved to Petrozavodsk in 1922, and who was to be become the author of the Karelo-Finnish Soviet Socialist Republic's state anthem. Successful and promising both as a composer and as a conductor, Roine Rautio died with his brother Heino on August 19, 1960, in a boat accident on Lake Onega. This recording of his four-movement Symphony is ripped from an ultra-rare Melodiya LP, released in 1962. The Karelian Radio and Television Symphony Orchestra is conducted by Aleksandr Dmitriev.
