Residency artists and researchers Music Laura Murtomaa Freelance musician and theatre artist I did my training in music and theatre in Helsinki, at the Sibelius Academy and the Student’s Theatre. I’ve done a wide range of compositions, arrangements and sound design with Circus Maximus and Helsinki Artistic Theatre (Helsingin Taiteellinen Teatteri), and have also done a lot of performing and teaching. At Saari Residence I’ll plan, practice for and compose a piece to be premièred in autumn 2010, provisionally entitled Kansallinen hanke – National Project.
