Description

[Machine Translation] After Sibelius, Kokkonen was one of the most important Finnish composers of the 20th century. The Requiem on this album was composed to mourn the death of his wife, and is soft, gentle, and comforting music. The original was written for large orchestra, but this album features an organ version arranged by Yoko Rinyama, who was Kokkonen's junior at the Sibelius Academy, and carefully transfers the sounds Kokkonen described to the organ. The clear melody sung over the quiet organ murmurs has a mystical atmosphere, using the free tonality that Kokkonen loved.

Note: This is an import edition (manufactured outside of Japan).

Description in Japanese

ヨーナス・コッコネン: レクイエム/オルガン作品集 / クラシックオムニバス

シベリウスの後、20世紀のフィンランドで最も重要な作曲家の一人であるコッコネン。このアルバムに収録された「レクイエム」は彼の妻の死を悼んで作曲された作品で、柔らかく穏やかな慰めの音楽。原曲は大オーケストラのために書かれているが、このアルバムでは、シベリウス・アカデミーでのコッコネンの後輩であった、ヨウコ・リンヤマの編曲によるオルガン伴奏版が用いられており、コッコネンが描いた響きが丁寧にオルガンへと移し替えられている。静かなオルガンのさざめきに乗って歌われる清澄な旋律は、コッコネンが愛した自由な調性が用いられた神秘的な雰囲気を漂わせている。
