Description
<p>Jyrki Linjama is both modern and aware of tradition, exploring the later for instance through cantus firmus technique. His sensitive music demonstrates both a desire to write complex music and an appreciation of simple, effective melodic lines.</p> <p>Church music has gradually become more dominant in his work, and in his doctorate he explored the unnecessary gap between modern concert music and church services. But he has also composed instrumental music, especially for his own instrument, the violin.</p>
