Katri Vala

So it seems that I finally made the decision whose poetry I'll compose next. Today I already composed one poem. Katri Vala (1901-1944) was one of the great modernists of Finish writers. Now her poem Kotiinpaluu (=Homecoming) is scribled down on paper. It's a happy story of coming home and meeting again the eyes of ones lover. And I tried to write it as peacefully joyous music.
