Description
<p>Osmo Tapio Räihälä writes music with dramatic effects and sudden contrasts, almost all of it instrumental music. A synaesthetic, he describes his music as extremely pictorial. “In my music you can perceive a strong pulse, a lot of energy, whole-tone harmonies, fragmentary melodies, rich instrumental colours. And overall, there's a certain playfulness.” </p> <p>He is also known as an author, Finlandia awarded for his book on contemporary music, and for his activities on television and radio.</p>
