Music reviews of Rautavaara: Cantus Articus; Piano Concerto; Symphony No. 3Music Review: I Can Hear Why This Composer Is Supposedly "Popular"This is my second excursion into the world of contemporary Finnish composer Einojuhani Rautavaara (love that name!). Cantus Arcticus from 1972, a "concerto for birds and orchestra", agreeingly melds the pre-taped sounds of Arctic fowl with light complementary orchestration in three mostly disparate movements. While the use of taped birdsong isn't necessarily unique in serious music, here the combination sounds more of a piece with one's personal contemplation of nature than with the concert hall and its more serious-minded patrons. It's a pleasant enough confection, I suppose. I found the final movement titled "Swans Migrating" to be the most aurally compelling.
