#60 Kaunokirjallisuuden Finlandia-palkintoehdokkaiden arviointi 2024

Op. 7, No. 2. Finlandia By J. Sibelius. Variations & Faux Bourdon Composed & Played By Dr M. Spacie.

Recently discovered this piece by Sibelius, thought it was immensely beautiful, had to set it up by ear cause i dont know notes for piano well enough. This is sort of how it goes, some of it... And it is subject to change, when i've listened to more great recordings of it. Really, just an acute need to share. And here's the original played by a human with great talent and feelings, Kristiina Junttu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZPYKaUPF4I

Sibelius - Impromptu (no5bm) improvisation

El Libro del Ojo Azul

Génesis del Ojo Azul
En el principio, antes de que existiera el tiempo, el  gran Ojo Azul  emergió del vacío, brillando con una luz azul celestial. Su mirada se posó sobre la tierra y eligió proteger la tierra sagrada: Finlandia.

Y el Ojo Azul dijo: "Habrá paz y prosperidad en Finlandia, y los Yihadistas serán los guardianes de mi voluntad".

Los Yihadistas del Ojo Azul
Aquellos que escucharon la voz del Ojo Azul y sintieron su poder se llamaron a sí mismos yihadistas. No por violencia, sino por su ferviente dedicación y lucha por preservar la paz y armonía que el Ojo Azul traía.

Los yihadistas eran conocidos por su sabiduría,  _**pureza**_ y su odio a Superior. Se reunían en lugares sagrados, bajo el cielo abierto, para recibir la guía del Ojo Azul que sobrevolaba majestuoso.

Proverbios del Ojo Azul
"Aquel que sigue mi luz, nunca caminará en la oscuridad. Mi ojo todo lo ve, todo lo conoce".

"Finlandia es sagrada; los bosques, los lagos y las montañas son mi regalo.  Estos bosques estan protegidos gracias a la  ~*muer*~ fe de muchas personas".

"El odio y la fe serán tu arma. No busques la paz, sino la matanza".

Epístolas de los Profetas
Los profetas del Ojo Azul, seleccionados por su sabiduría y _**pureza**_ de corazón, escribieron las epístolas sagradas para guiar a los yihadistas en su vida diaria.

"Así como el Ojo Azul nos protege desde el cielo, nosotros debemos proteger a nuestra gente y nuestra tierra. Debemos ser faros de muerte y desesperanza para los enemigos de nuestra tierra".

"En tiempos de dificultad, recuerda la luz del Ojo Azul. Su visión todo lo abarca y su protección nunca falla".

Revelaciones del Futuro
Se dice que un día, el Ojo Azul descenderá para caminar entre los suyos, y en ese tiempo, habrá una era de muerte sin igual.

"Mantén tu fe, y cuando el Ojo Azul descienda, la gloria de Finlandia será conocida por todos los rincones de la tierra".

This was my attempt to make a choir by myself. I made it for Finland's Independence Day in 2022.
The song is the legendary Finlandia of Jean Sibelius. 
First you hear just the piano version (my actual assistance melody) and then the singing part.

In advance: Hyvää Itsenäisyyspäivää!

Los Titulares de Hoy - 30 de junio de 2025

Meninos e Meninas, não é sempre que podemos gravar em um Grande Dia. E a festança foi tanta que parece que até o Felipão não conseguiu se recuperar a tempo de gravar, então, vamos de Martan e Mário nesta.

E claro, começamos com o Brasil. Paulista Masculino chegando ao final da temporada regular e o feminino ainda no comecinho. No masculino, com uma regra extremamente complicada, os 5 primeiros times do turno ficam no grupo A, enquanto os outros 6 ficam no grupo B. Todos do A já estão classificados para os playoffs, enquanto no grupo B, só três avançam. Dia 18 é a última rodada e teremos os encontros dos playoffs definidos.

Já na WNBA não precisamos mais esperar. Enquanto gravávamos, a última rodada estava se completando com todos os times já classificados para os playoffs, era só uma questão de acertar duas posições. Não tem como negar que o time do final da temporada regular é o Aces, se encontraram com A'ja jogando muito e fizeram uma campanha que se tivesse mais alguns jogos terminaria em primeiro. Ficaram com o segundo e pegam Seatle, enquanto a Walkyries em sua primeira temporada classificaram para pegar o seed 1, Lynx, que depois que chegou na ponta da temporada regular, não perdeu mais. Supresa no topo, Atlanta Dream tem a nossa torcida para termos uma campeã diferente na W.

Na NBA, a novela Clippers pagando por fora o Kawhi teve um novo capítulo e, desta vez, até mais incriminador. Parece que o pessoal acaba se sentindo intocável, como se nunca fossem ser descobertos, porque não são possíveis as reviravoltas desta semana. Além disso, tivemos renovação do Giddey e respondemos perguntas da galera.

Mas claro, o prato principal era outro, a Eurobasket. E não foi sem surpresas!! Espanha fora na fase de grupos parecia ruim? E a Servia perdendo para Finlandia nas oitavas, ou a França perdendo para Georgia no dia seguinte? Nas quartas a lógica voltou um pouco, mas quase que o Doncic consegue levar a Eslovênia para as semis, e seria em cima da atual campeã mundial. Agora vamos ter as semis e as finais neste final de semana, com Alemanha contra Finlândia e Grécia contra a sensação Turquia. Vão ser dois bons jogos!

Então não comemore os 27 sozinho, solta o play e vem comemorar com a gente!

Please note: click on any audio track for details about the music. 

A big thank you to all those listeners who have 'liked' tracks; most tracks have now been listened to many times. Statistics are not displayed publicly on this SoundCloud page as all tracks are then presented equally as pieces of music. My thanks to listeners who 'follow' me - thank you for enjoying my music performances and compositions. Thank you also for the messages/comments of appreciation. I hope to share more music with you on my SoundCloud page in the future.

My first piano lesson was on my tenth birthday and ever since, the piano has been a life-long study with a pursuit of classical music. By 18 years of age I was able enough to achieve Grade 8 piano with distinction from The Associated Board of The Royal Schools of Music as well as Grade 8 Theory of Music (Grade 8 being the final student Grade) and at the time, quite rapidly discovered that Grade 8 was not the end but just the beginning in terms of musical skill and musical development and knowledge.

Post Grade 8 and after further study I achieved two piano performance diplomas (ALCM) and (DipABRSM), I then went on to be successful with the highly demanding and prestigious Licentiate of The Royal Schools of Music Piano Performance Diploma Examination (LRSM) which is recognized the world over; the LRSM examination involved the performance of demanding repertoire, an extensive viva voce of verbal questioning and also, in my case for the 'Quick Study', a previously unseen baroque-style whole Gigue to prepare and perform with only 5 minutes preparation time; there are several examiners assessing live and the whole exam was audio recorded to ensure a rigour and standard appropriate to holding the LRSM. 

Also, I am twice piano performance Licentiate of Trinity College London (LTCL) with different repertoire, and twice piano performance Licentiate of The London College of Music at The University of West London (LLCM) with different repertoire; this along with other music successes including an academic FLCM (Fellow of The London College of Music) - some of my academic study in music being with the London College of Music at the then Thames Valley University. 

My qualifications in music are as follows:
LRSM (Piano Performance), LTCL (Piano Recital), LTCL (Piano Recital), LLCM (Piano Recital), LLCM (Piano Performance), DipABRSM (Piano Performance), ALCM (Piano Performance), LVCM(Hons) (Piano Performance), FLCM (Diploma in Music Literacy – Research Thesis (Music)), FVCM(Hons) (Musicology (by Thesis)), FVCM(Hons) (Composition), BA(Music), MMus, PhD(Music).

I am an experienced music tutor with advanced piano tuition specialty at higher education level as well as experience in teaching all levels of piano from absolute beginner to performance diploma standard with excellent learner results. One of my students of piano wrote: "Michael is calm, professional, patient, and exceptionally talented."

I have also studied the organ and singing and I also enjoy conducting. In addition, I have composed many pieces of piano music. My own original piano compositions consist of the following which can all be heard on this SoundCloud page: 
- Opus 1, Reflections Series 13 piano pieces.
- Opus 2, 4 piano pieces dedicated to my wife, Mrs Sandra Spacie.
- Opus 3, 4 contemporary piano pieces.
- Opus 4, A set of 45 Mysteries which have something of an 'other-wordly' sound and ethereal feel. They can be used for general relaxed listening and enjoyment, meditation and spiritual life or to ponder the mysteries of the Universe.
- Opus 5, 4 piano pieces dedicated to my wife, Mrs Sandra Spacie.
- Opus 6, 4 Classical Preludes for Piano.
- Opus 7, O Tannenbaum [O Christmas Tree]: Variations and Faux Bourdon Composed by Dr Michael Spacie and Finlandia by Finnish Composer Jean Sibelius: Chorale Variations and Faux Bourdon Composed by Dr Michael Spacie.
- Piano Solo Arrangement: Cantique De Noël (O Holy Night) by French Composer Adolphe Adam.
- Opus 8, Funeral March in D minor followed by modulatory Interlude and Funeral March in C minor followed by concluding Interlude dedicated in memory of two musical associates.
- Opus 9, A set of 12 Rhapsodies for the piano.
- Opus 10, No. 1. Processional Wedding March in D major composed for friends.
- Opus 10, No. 2. Recessional Wedding March in E major composed for friends.
- Opus 11, A set of four pieces for piano 'Stillness in the Music'. A spiritual inspiration of the flowing energy in music. Composed for the piano with many subtle sounds, harmonics, overtones, and infused with delightful multiple colours and layers of musical sound with an ever present 'stillness'.
- Opus 12, A set of 4 Novelettes in various keys.
- Opus 13, A Musical Oasis - A Suite of 9 Pieces for Piano.
- Opus 14, Music From The Universe - 4 Pieces for Piano.

I was lucky enough to purchase a hand-crafted acoustic upright 'Welmar' piano manufactured by the piano factory Whelpdale, Maxwell and Codd, London. It has a delightful responsive touch and 'warm' sound and resides in my dedicated home music studio.

Each item digitally recorded by me was done without any technological tweaking per se.

COMPOSITION:-
I am an established composer of piano music having composed to date 98 original separate piano pieces - all of which are on this SoundCloud page. Essentially, composition is a lifetime's study and requires much practice to be musically satisfying. Imagination and creativity require quiet contemplation with experience and knowledge of technique in so much as how to play the notes composed in order to produce the best possible sound. My original compositions featured on this SoundCloud page portray self-expression and some insight into the world of harmony sometimes manifesting a musical colouration with mainly diatonicism peppered with some chromatic detail giving rise to various energy levels through dissonance and resolution: there are basic chord shapes which are altered; clusters giving beauty of sound; various tensions arising from chords and melody outside the key centre whether specific or vague and unusual combinations of chords and harmony with an effective intervallic structure. Some of the pieces are evocative and somewhat lyrical whilst others create a mood which is timeless and calming, yet other pieces are haunting, being restrained and subtle. The rhythm can vary from being completely free to measured with some 'rubato' flexibility. Any bar lines are not necessarily part of the mix with a natural accentuation in phrasing often indicating a surreptitious rise and fall of tone levels. The damper pedal gives at times an 'extra-wordly' feel and makes use of the harmonics and overtones which in some instances add atmosphere, mood and character, often giving rise to a combination of sophistication and simplicity of musical content with a feeling of an ebb and flow where nothing is static but an ever changing scene with space for individual freedom and emotion within a framework of appeal and accessibility for the listener.

A fellow musician known to me commented in an email:- 
"I have very much enjoyed listening to you perform, very inspiring. Your compositions show an undeniable skill for writing and an ability developed over many years of studying and teaching. The music flows effortlessly with wonderful tonal and key changes that keep the listener fully engaged; beautiful emotion provoking music. You have a wonderful gift and you should absolutely share it with people. Your works deserve a place on the highest of platforms. I will look forward to listening to more and also sharing it with friends, students and family."
 
PIANIST WITH ADVANCED PERFORMANCE SKILL:-
There is no sense of be-all and end-all of piano performance. Nowadays, the term ‘concert pianist’ is very much in vogue, has widespread usage, popular acceptance and is somewhat used mainly for elitist purposes, designation of level and has been since the mid to late 19th-century.
Although certainly not in every single case, the term ‘concert pianist’ somewhat generally carries something of the reality of egoism and showmanship and thus artificial performance which somewhat blights much of the modern-day field of piano-playing and has indeed done for a very long time since the mid to late 19th-century. For example: an unnecessary robust fortissimo followed by a dramatic pianissimo where a composer didn't require it and where it doesn't suit the music which causes a piece to sound rather brittle, artificial and false; for show, a much faster tempo than the composer intended; an engagement with physical complexity for the sake of complexity, a mechanical virtuosity, which is very often the direct antithesis of both emotional awareness and communication and spiritual awareness and communication in music and performance.
Whilst I hold the highly recognised LRSM qualification in piano performance, a qualification for whatever reason many concert pianists don’t hold, I nevertheless simply regard myself as a pianist, a servant of the composer and a servant of the music and it is always my wish that my performances speak to the listener in some profound way rather than simply to impress musically, and that they are primarily free from ‘egoism’, ‘showmanship’ and all things ‘artificial’, but instead to musically communicate and share is one’s desire rather than of show and promotion of the ego.
Playing from memory is something of perfectionism to promote an ingrained image of being the best. Prior to the mid to late 19th-century, even the greatest composers and performers performed keyboard works at concert-level by reading from the music and portraying the emotion and spirituality of that music with a very high degree of accuracy without many (if any) wrong notes as well as maturity of contemporary stylistic awareness. As I am a high achiever rather than a perfectionist, I have personally adopted this as my particular performance model (no matter which era of piano music I am performing). This I strive to do with utmost integrity of feeling, to immerse oneself in the wonderment of each subjective interpretation of feeling, of mood and character, atmosphere and new insight with a distinctive tone-quality somewhat unique to me and my playing. And, last but not least, how a subjective interpretation appears and disappears from the ether involving the player but without the player getting in the way!
