Uuno Klami (20 September 1900 – 29 May 1961) was a Finnish composer. Klami studied music in Helsinki with Erkki Melartin and later in Paris and Vienna. His main works include the Kalevala Suite and the unfinished ballet Whirls. Klami also wrote two symphonies (1938 and 1945) and Symphonie enfantine (1927), two piano concertos and one Violin Concerto (1943). His energetic Karelian Rhapsody was the first Finnish orchestral work to be published in Finland. Klami was influenced by French and Spanish music, and especially by Maurice Ravel, for whom he had a particular esteem.

Juha Kangas (born 1945 in Ostrobothnian region of Kaustinen, Finland) is a Finnish conductor and violist. Kangas studied in Helsinki at the Sibelius Academy with well established composers such as Rautavaara, Heininen and Sallinen, and with legendary Professor of Violin Onni Suhonen. In 1972 Kangas founded a chamber orchestra whose members, aged between 10 and 11, were all students at the Kokkola Conservatory, where he taught as teacher of the violin. Over the years this ensemble grew into the Ostrobothnian Chamber Orchestra. As a conductor, Kangas helped establish many Nordic and Baltic composers.
