---

This UMO Recordings album is a compilation of Pekka Pohjola's works from Finnish Broadcasting Company YLE's archives, performed by the UMO.

The compositions cover nearly a quarter of a century, with the earliest dating back to the mid-1970’s. The latest one, a commissioned composition titled ”Us”, was premiered in 2000. In addition to these we have included as a kind of a bonus track a more recent version of the closing sequence of “Us”, performed in 2004.
