Today’s video covers three of Einojuhani Rautavaara’s remarkable Etudes, written in 1969. Rautavaara was probably Finland’s most distinguished composer after Sibelius, and I talk a bit about his strikingly beautiful and organic musical style in the video.
For all you pianists out there, I do highly recommend these pieces as effective performance pieces—they are very impressive sounding, without being excessively difficult!
