Harr i Vuori's Chiroptera (2017) for guitar embraces the instrument with several compositional solutions born from the attributes of the guitar. Dedicated to Patrik Kleemola this 12 minutes work is devided in three movements. The textures of Chiroptera are complex but their build-up, fade-out, measuring and timing of these changes is clearly defined and understandable. According to the composer the name Chiroptera has the same beautiful sound as the composition in whole. In addition he currently lives in an area populated with lots of bats both in the woods and in the atticks. Harri Vuori (b. 1957) studied composition with Paavo Heininen, Eero Hameenniemi and Einojuhani Rautavaara at the Sibelius Academy. He has been composer in residence of the Hyvinkaa Orchestra since 1997 and has taught in the Department of Musicology at the University of Helsinki since 1993. HIs guitar concerto Ctulhu's Dreams (2016) based on the Ctulhu mythology by H.P. Lovecraft was commissioned by the Lappeenranta City Orchestra and premiered in 2016.
