  Created specially for television and recorded in studio this short opera by one of today's most eminent Finnish composers is based on a Christmas story by the American writer O. Henry. The telling of the story is unsentimental Hannu Heikinheimo's staging exquisitely observed and Rautavaara's music powerfully compelling. The Christmas message finds a truly imaginative and unequivocal expression in 'The Gift Of The Magi'.
