I didn't know Finnish people had music.

"There is a sense of searching and exhaustion in here. The material has an archaic dissonance to it."

"The timpani rings out in the rehearsal hall of the Music Centre."

"Incredible. Even the dissonant intervals in the horns have a sensual clarity to them"

Are Finns actually this pretentious when they talk about music, or is it a symptom of bad translation?

Not interested. Sibelius hasn't been good since his 3rd symphony.

Wookie Milson: Not interested. Sibelius hasn't been good since his 3rd symphony.

'cause that's when the rest of us heard of him?

Imma let you Finnish, but Tchaikovsky had the most sensually dissonant intervals in the horns of all time. OF ALL TIME!

/I have no idea what I'm talking about...

Thanks!
