Ti-ti-uuu
by Lauri Supponen
a meeting in the fog for accordion and electric guitar
Description
Ti-ti-uuu on saanut nimensä Tove Janssonin lyhyen muumitarinan surkeasta hahmosta, joka nimen saatuaan ei enää kaipaa nimeäjäänsä. Tämän rihmanohuen olennon voi nähdä Nuuskamuikkusen hatun alla piilevän kevätlaulun henkilöitymänä - siksi, mikä on vasta tulossa musiikiksi.
/
Ti-ti-uuu is named after a forlorn character in a Tove Jansson short story, one that upon receiving its name does not yearn for the name-giver. This thread-thin creature can be seen as the personification of the spring song, hiding under Snufkin's hat – that which is only on its way to become music
