KAIJA SAARIAHO
It is with sadness that I learnt of the death of Kaija Saariaho. There are others more eloquent and knowledgeable than me, who have written obituaries to match her importance in the pantheon of composers.
All I can say is that personally, her music was one of the first where I discovered the beauty of the natural world encapsulated in sound and composition, using both orchestral and electronic instruments.
As my blackbird sings in the garden this morning, somehow, I hear a connection between his song and her songs.

MIRA CALIX (1970 – 2022)
“…she pushed the boundaries between electronic music, classical music and art in a truly unique way.” – Warp Records
I am absolutely beside myself to hear of the death of Mira Calix.
She was one of the rare artists who supported my little venture through the years and for that long distance online connection, I am grateful. Thoughts go out to her family and friends.❤
