It's a very fine release and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Full of imaginative colors, drama, and well thought out structure. I very much love this composer. For those who haven't heard his music, it is hard to describe except to say there is some early Rautavaara (who was also strongly influenced by Sibelius, Shostakovitch, and Mahler) but still very unique. I have not heard a single work from any of these composers I did not enjoy or at the very least find very finely written. Aho is also active on social media and I've been lucky to have many exchanges with him. He told me about his Symphony No. 17 before it was composed or announced for example. I wish him much further productivity and success. I am a big fan.

You obviously have the advantage over me; the cd is not released in the UK until 29 June.

Touché because I am missing out on a concert I would certainly attend if I lived in the UK that happened today and envy my UK friends who have the opportunity to attend.
