works for violin and piano by Finnish women composers 1886-1936.

Finnish music has had no shortage of women composers. Although many of them had their works published and otherwise created a successful career in music, they are virtually nowhere to be found in later histories of Finnish music. The title of the present three-volume anthology is taken from a research project by Susanna Välimäki and Nuppu Koivisto, where they brought interesting composers and their life stories back from the twilight, and the purpose here is that through this new publication of their music they might be reinstated where they should have always been: in the live concert repertoire.

Other Finnish works for violin contains twelve pieces for violin and piano. Though brief in duration, most of them were written for concert use, being rich and expressive and, in some cases, technically quite demanding. Others are delightful salon pieces. This volume was compiled by violinist Mirka Malmi and edited by her with pianist Tiina Karakorpi.
