The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Melartin is generally considered to be one of Finland's most significant national Romantic composers, although his music, then and now, largely has been overshadowed by that of his contemporary, Jean Sibelius, the country's most famous composer.
- The core of Melartin's oeuvre consists of a set of six symphonies, as well as is his opera, Aino, based on a story from the Kalevala, Finland's national epic, but nevertheless in the style of Richard Wagner.
- Melartin's other notable works include the popular wedding tune, Festive March, the symphonic poem, Traumgesicht, the Violin Concerto in D minor, the Kalevalic symphonic poem for soprano and orchestra, Marjatta, The Blue Pearl, Finland's first large-scale ballet, and a set of four string quartets, composed between 1896 and 1910.
