Hello!
Welcome to my homepage.
I am a guitar teacher and composer and I work in Kuopio
Conservatoire of Music and Dance in Finland. My photo You can see on the left
and up on the left there is my self portrait.
A list of my ancestors can be seen here. Pölkki
family is known rather well and quite far backwards – now speaking of
finnish commoners.
I studied guitar playing in Jyväskylä Conservatoire where my teacher was
Štěpán Rak. I like very much working with guitar orchestra and chamber
music groups, look at programs!.
Besides of my teaching work I have composed songs, but only very few solo guitar
pieces. Playing guitar recitals I stopped already 1985 – no time for them.
My main hobbys are sailing by a boat called Tuulentie
and Hungary, Hungarian culture, language and wine. I am the president of
Finnish-Hungarian Association in Siilinjärvi.
Travelling is my hobby too. Among others I made a trip to Africa in 1997.
Story is written in Hungarian but look at the photos!
Other things I have done:
I have built many gingerbread... constructions.Article: Build your own capo!
