3 Folk Songs Op. 28 (HEINIO MIKKO)

SKU: FG.55009-506-9

ISBN 979-0-55009-506-9.

The Three folk songs for double mixed choir (1. Tirlil, 2. Sommernacht, 3. Der Spielman) were completed while Mikko Heinio studied in Berlin, 1977. They were commissioned by Hans Hilsdorf, who was then Heinio's teacher in orchestra conducting, and he specifically requested folk songs. Although these songs are primarily arrangements, Heinio wanted to avoid the typical chunk-by-chunk verse structure and provide a continuous texture, instrumental if you like. The text is in Finnish and in German, translation by the composer.
