The international jury stated:

Sanna Salmenkallio’s score for Virpi Suutari’s ‘Aalto’ is very well written and very intimate. It is humanizing the furnitures and architecture that is shown in Aalto; making us feel the objects and buildings and creating a strong sense of connecting with both the man and his art. This is what Aalto’s rounded and singular forms sounds like!’

The jury also stated their delightment about how the five projects showcased the richness of Nordic talent:

Each of the five Nordic scores submitted for this year’s HARPA Nordic Film Composers Award are top shelf material.  They all witness a great sensibility towards the stories and pictures they are accompanying – and they are doing it in such clever ways. 

Finnish Sanna Salmenkallio winner of the HARPA Nordic Film Composers Award 2022 for her score for Virpi Suutari's documentary, AALTO.
