  • Leevi Antti Madetoja ([ˈmɑdet.ˈojɑ]; * 17. Februar 1887 in Oulu; † 6. Oktober 1947 in Helsinki) war ein finnischer Komponist. Madetoja ist neben Jean Sibelius, dessen bedeutendster Schüler er war, einer der wichtigsten Vertreter der finnischen Spätromantik. Aufgewachsen im Nordwesten Finnlands, studierte er ab 1906 in Helsinki auch bei Armas Järnefelt und von 1910 bis 1912 in Paris, in Wien bei Robert Fuchs und in Berlin. Anschließend kehrte er in seine Heimat zurück und lehrte an der Sibelius-Akademie. Ab 1913 war er mit der finnischen Schriftstellerin L. Onerva verheiratet. Anfangs schrieb Madetoja in einem allgemeinen spätromantischen Stil, beeinflusst insbesondere von Richard Strauss. Ein typisches Werk dieser frühen, eher eklektischen Periode ist die 1. Sinfonie. Mit der 2. Sinfonie findet Madetoja eine selbständigere Tonsprache. Das Werk, das den Kontrast der Schönheit der Natur mit dem Eindringen des Krieges verarbeitet, entstand unter dem Eindruck des Todes von Madetojas Bruders Yrjö sowie seines finnischen Komponistenkollegen Toivo Kuula im finnischen Bürgerkrieg 1918. 1923 komponierte er die finnische Nationaloper Die Ostbottnier (finnisch Pohjolaisia). Danach fand Madetoja zu einem leichteren, französisch inspirierten Stil, auch beeinflusst durch einen Aufenthalt in der Nähe von Paris 1926. Dort entstand die 3. Sinfonie, kurz darauf die Ballettsuite Okon Fuoko. Madetojas zweite Oper Juha (1935) erreichte nicht mehr den Erfolg der Ostbottnier. Nach der Kantate Lauluseppele 1938 führten Geldsorgen und eine sich verschlechternde Gesundheit zu einem Rückgang seiner Kompositionstätigkeit, es entstanden bis zu seinem Tod nur noch einige A-cappella-Chöre in den Jahren 1945 und 1946.

  • Leevi Antti Madetoja (pronounced [ˈleːʋi ˈmɑdetˌojɑ]; 17 February 1887 – 6 October 1947) was a Finnish composer, music critic, conductor, and teacher of the late-Romantic and early-modern periods. He is widely recognized as one of the most significant Finnish contemporaries of Jean Sibelius, under whom he studied privately from 1908 to 1910. The core of Madetoja's oeuvre consists of a set of three symphonies (1916, 1918, and 1926), arguably the finest early-twentieth century additions to the symphonic canon of any Finnish composer, Sibelius excepted. As central to Madetoja's legacy is Pohjalaisia (The Ostrobothnians, 1923), proclaimed Finland's "national opera" following its successful 1924 premiere and, even today, a stalwart of the country's repertoire. Other notable works include an Elegia for strings (1909); Kuoleman puutarha (The Garden of Death, 1918–21), a three-movement suite for solo piano; the Japanisme ballet-pantomime, Okon Fuoko (1927); and, a second opera, Juha (1935). Madetoja's fourth symphony, purportedly lost in 1938 at a Paris railway station, never materialized. Acclaimed during his lifetime, Madetoja today is seldom heard outside the Nordic countries, although his music has in recent decades enjoyed a renaissance, as the recording projects of a number of Nordic orchestras and conductors evidence. His idiom is notably introverted for a national Romantic composer, a blend of Finnish melancholy, folk melodies from his native region of Ostrobothnia, and the elegance and clarity of the French symphonic tradition, founded on César Franck and guided by Vincent d'Indy. His music also reveals Sibelius's influence. Madetoja was also an influential music critic, primarily with the newspaper Helsingin sanomat (1916–32), in which he reviewed the music scenes of France and Finland, praising Sibelius in particular. In 1918, he married the Finnish poet L. Onerva; their marriage was tempestuous and remained childless. His health failing due to alcoholism, Madetoja died from a heart attack on 6 October 1947 in Helsinki. (en)

  • Because Madetoja never makes any concessions to the listener, his music has not gained the position it deserves in the public's awareness. People are now beginning to open their ears to it. But that he deserves far greater attention, and that his music is both rare and precious and not simply a poor edition of the music of Sibelius—that is something they have not yet learnt. (en)
  • Despite how my "stock", so to speak, has risen with the people, I feel completely uncertain about myself. I see how the young lift their heads—Madetoja higher than others—and I have to admire them, but my inner self needs more egotism and callousness than I am presently capable of. And my contemporaries are dying. (en)
  • I have now received refusals from every publisher. For me this is totally incomprehensible. Things have come to a pretty poor state when our publishers are so cautious, and think only of their wretched balance sheets, when a project of this importance concerning our greatest composer is proposed. I hope, however, you won't be angry with me, even though I have troubled you so much over this project. (en)
  • Are you coming to Paris soon? I would be very pleased if you did. I am very lonely here. And my spirits are often low, because I have not yet been able to settle down to work. But I hope to do so very soon when my appetite for composition returns … I want to thank you yet again for all the kindness and goodwill you have shown me. You have inspired my work; you have given a faltering youngster courage to set out on the right path, albeit a thorny path but one that leads to the sun-clad and richly coloured heights. I shall always feel deeply grateful to you for all that you have done. (en)
  • I still clearly remember with what real feeling of joy and respect I received the information that I had been accepted as a student of Sibelius—I thought I was seeing a beautiful dream. Jean Sibelius, that master blessed by the Lord, would be bothered to read the pieces written by me! (en)
  • I received a telegram from Viipuri yesterday that made my blood run cold: "Yjrö fell on the 13th day of April" was the message in all its terrible brevity. This unforeseen, shocking news fills us with unutterable grief. Death, that cruel companion of war and persecution, has not therefore spared us either; it has come to visit us, to snatch one of us as its victim. Oh when will we see the day when the forces of hatred vanish from the world and the good spirits of peace can return to heal the wounds inflicted by suffering and misery? (en)
