Oska r Merikanto (1868-1924) was Finland's first Finnish-speaking organ virtuoso and the founder of the Finnish organ school. His compositions for organ remain at the core of Finnish organ repertoire, besides being an integral part of our cultural history: some of them reflect important events in Finnish music or society at large. Merikanto was an innovator. His organ works were the earliest extensive concert pieces written in Finland that demanded high technical proficiency and made use of the most recent developments in organ building. This critical edition of works for organ by Oskar Merikanto was edited by Jan Lehtola D.Mus., organist and Merikanto scholar.

Oskar Merikanto frequently made concert tours in Finland, and had great success with variations on familiar themes. Ukko Noak -muunnelmat (Old Man Noah Variations) is made on Carl Michael Bellman's well-known song. The piano score is quite demanding, and reflects Merikanto's skill as a performer.
