Auvinen, Antti

Karkija for bass clarinet and marimba was a commission of Duo Xylokosmos and was premiered in Austria 2007. The product includes one performance score (B4 sized loose pages) in a folder.

Beneath for wind quintet (2007) was commissioned by the quintet Arktinen hysteria. The work was premiered in 2007.

Singel excelsis is composed using the material from an earlier work for three organs. Auvinen finds fascinating the rhythmic characteristics of the organ: "Many of the vibrations and rhythmic fluctuations derived from the overtone series and the natural virtuosity of the instrument is utterly fascinating."

Delfiinimeditaatio (A Dolphin Meditation) is set to Harry Salmenniemi’s short story (in Finnish). Salmenniemi’s prose gets a modern treatment by Auvinen: repetitions of words and syllables, cutting, onomatopoetism, hissing and sprechgesang methods are employed. Buy now
