Short description
Veikko Valanne (b. 2000) is a young aspiring composer from Tampere, Finland, who draws inspiration not only from his inner world but also from the Finnish nature. Valanne describes his style as highly tonal and late-Romantic. Despite his young age, Valanne is an experienced composer. His works have been performed by, among others, the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra, Kymi Sinfonietta, TAMK Symphony, and numerous musicians across Finland. Valanne prefers composing for orchestra, but his repertoire also includes chamber music and solo works (e.g., for piano). He cites Ludwig van Beethoven, Gustav Mahler, Jean Sibelius, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart as his key influences.
