Composer's Notes
I composed aura for Hanna Kinnunen as a part of Composition comments project at Time of Music Festival in Viitasaari, Finland in 2009. My work comments on two other works for flute, bass flute and electronics: Poison Mushroom by Dai Fujikura and Atem-Lied by Toshio Hosokawa.
aura was my first work for acoustic instruments enhanced further by the use of electronics. The work is dedicated to Hanna Kinnunen, who premiered the work at the Time of Music Festival in 2009.
