Some information about me
I was born in 8th of June 1966 in Vieremä, Northern Savonia, about 100 km North from Kuopio
Im a Finnish culture professional.
I graduated to cultural manager (Bachelor's Degree) from Mikkeli's University of Applied Sciences in November 2006.
I am also an elocutionist-pianist-poet-composer-artist.
As an poet, I have a large programme of Finnish poems from Finnish poets like Aleksis Kivi, Eino Leino, Eeva-Liisa Manner, Risto Rasa, Anne Hänninen and even small piece of a poem from Kalevala in Savonian language about creating the world.
From my poems with piano music, I have created 50 minutes long programme titled "I am Coloured Like Heaven".
My piano repertoire is also large, mostly small piano compositions, but i have also larger piano compositions from Brahms and Gershwin, Intermezzo op. 118 nr 2 A major and Prelude nr 2 C# sharp minor, Jean Sibelius, Heino Kaski, Oskar Merikanto, Frédéric Chopin, Sergei Rachmaninoff and from many other composers.
You can read more closely about the composers from the programmes linked in my homepages.
Outside of that there are many other composers also, for example Robert Schumann.
I have written over 30 songs and 3 piano compositions, mainly as songs to hobby writers poems.
I have been also working 5 years as a piano teacher in Hankasalmi, Middle Finland.
I have also accompanied choirs with piano, alto violinist, cellist and with different soloists.
