 Esa-Pekka Salonen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Esa-Pekka Salonen (born June 30, 1958) is a prominent Finnish orchestral conductor and composer.
Esa-Pekka Salonen has voiced a distaste for ideological and dogmatic approaches to composition and sees music creation as deeply physical.
Salonen studied horn, conducting and composition at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki.

 Esa-Pekka Salonen — Virtual Finland
Salonen's debut in London with the Philharmonia Orchestra in 1983, at the age of 25, was an international sensation.
Among Salonen's weapons are his unusually clear beat, his effective use of rehearsal time, his consistently clear and dynamic interpretations and - more often in the concert hall than in the recording studio - his capacity to throw himself emotionally on to the level of a wild man when dynamite is needed.
Salonen - whose awards as a composer include the Prix Italia - is perhaps not Mozart, but he is unquestionably one of the most highly regarded and successful conductors of his generation.

 ChesterNovello, Esa-Pekka Salonen
Esa-Pekka Salonen (born Finland 1958) studied horn, conducting and composing at the conservatory in Helsinki during the 1970s.
Salonen was recognised for "his innovative programming, for infusing a jolt of contagious energy into the LA music scene, and for building the Philharmonic into one of the country's great ensembles".
Salonen's second orchestral work Giro is also from this period and uses something of the same harmonic structure.

 Boston.com / A&E / Music / L.A. Philharmonic extends Salonen's pact
Salonen was born in Helsinki, Finland, in 1958.
Salonen, now in his 13th season as music director, made his American debut conducting the Los Angeles Philharmonic in November 1984.
Last season, Salonen helped orchestrate three distinctive gala concerts inaugurating the Walt Disney Concert Hall, as well as a festival celebrating the relationship between architecture and music, among other events.

 ChesterNovello, Wing on Wing, Esa-Pekka Salonen
With the concert coming on the heels of a new contract that extends Salonen's music directorship of the Philharmonic until at least 2008, the performance was pure celebration.
They are joined by the croaking of the deep-voice double-bassoon and double-bass clarinet, placed right at the front, to form the foundations for a piece of music that Salonen composed as homage to the new Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles last year.
Salonen, however, widened his musical world panorama picturesquely with singing voices.

 Esa-Pekka Salonen
Salonen's teacher of composition at the Sibelius Academy was the visionary Einojuhani Rautavaara.
Salonen did not forget all about composing on being launched into orbit as a star conductor in the early 1980s, but the rate with which new works appeared inevitably grew slower.
The concerto was Salonen's first large-scale orchestral work and sets out to discover different, juicily percussive effects in contrast to the alto sax, the itinerant explorer of the work.

 Esa-Pekka Salonen - In Rehearsal (Debussy - La Mer) : DVD
Salonen made reference that Debussy took tremendous dangerous chances,and profound challenges in his orchestration.
Under his dynamic leadership, the orchestra is recognized as one of the world´s most outstanding, and the exciting partnership Salonen has established with his musicians has been widely acclaimed in the international press.
My only disagreement here is Salonen really didn;t analyze the work, and there didn´t seem much to do in rehearsal.Well we know that, that the LA Phil knows the damn piece.

 LA Daily News - Entertainment
Sure, thanks to Esa-Pekka Salonen's years of hard work, the playing was technically improved from what some wags like to call the bad old days.
The brasses sound fuller but less focused than under Salonen, and the string choirs were more fully blended, and less distinctive, than when the present music director conducts.
The most striking thing about the performance, however, wasn't Mehta's broad, untamed conception of the piece, but rather his sorcererlike ability to transform the Philharmonic of today into the Philharmonic of yesteryear.

 Off the Record Yefim Bronfman/Esa-Pekka Salonen/Los Angeles Philharmonic
And Salonen and his LA players pick up much of the detail in Bartók’s thorny scoring, like the snarling trombone glissandos in No. 1.
Neither of the above seems to be available in the US, however, so Bronfman and Salonen can stand as a very good recommendation among modern recordings.
Their partnership is most successful in the Third Concerto: they revel in its unabashedly tonal melodies, evocation of nature evocation, and high-spirited Lisztian finale.
