Tauno Marttinen - Composer of intuition and inspiration
"Tauno Marttinen's (1912-2008) image as a composer is a colourful one. His work has relied on instinct and inspiration and is rooted in mysticism. For the 'shaman of Hämeenlinna', as he has become known, music and composition are a form of meditation, a key to the mysteries of the universe," writes Juha Torvinen in his article from 2003.
