Kaija Saariaho Description |
|
Date of Birth
14 October 1952, Helsinki, Finland
Mini Biography
Kaija Saariaho was one of the group of Finnish modernists who received their early training under Paavo Heininen at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki (Magnus Lindeberg was another), where she was one of the founder members of the group Korvat auki ("Ears Open"), which met to discuss new music and occasionally put on concerts of both their own works and new music that deserved an airing in Finland. She went on the study with Brian Ferneyhough in Freiburg im Breisgau, also attending the summer courses at Darmstadt. A decisive move - in both professional and personal terms - came in 182, when she first went to Paris to study computer music at IRCAM : Paris is now her home.
It was there that she became more deeply acquainted with the "spectral" approach to composition of G  ... Birtwistle and Kaija Saariaho.  Kaija Saariaho |
