This composer used the phrase "non-atonal dodecaphony" to describe works like his third symphony, which calls for four Wagner tubas and blends twelve-tone techniques with Brucknerian romanticism. His first piano sonata is called "Christ and the Fisherman," and his Piano Concerto No.3 was commissioned by Vladimir Ashkenazy to allow the soloist to double as conductor. He won his first competition with a work which includes a "Credo et Dubito" movement but is scored for brass and percussion rather than chorus, his A Requiem in Our Time. He first gained international fame with his 7th symphony, which is called Angel of Light. He's not Respighi, but his most famous work contains depictions of "The Bog" and "Swans Migrating," and supplements the orchestra with pre-recorded bird songs. FTP, name this composer of Cantus Arcticus, the most notable living Finnish composer and the arch-nemesis of Charlie Dees.
