List of compositions by Leevi Madetoja
The following is a list of the works of the Finnish composer Leevi Madetoja. In total, his oeuvre comprises 82 works with opus numbers and about 40 without. While Madetoja composed in all genres, he found his greatest success with the orchestra: symphonies, operas, cantatas, and orchestral miniatures all flowed from his pen.[1][2] Curiously, he composed no concerti, although at various times in his career he hinted at plans for a violin concerto.[3] Madetoja was also an accomplished composer for voice, as his numerous choral pieces and songs for voice and piano evidence; he found less success with—and composed sparingly for—solo piano.[4] Finally, Madetoja wrote little for chamber ensemble after his student years,[4][1] although it is unclear if this was due to insufficient skill or waning interest in the genre.
Today, Madetoja is primarily remembered for his set of three symphonies (1916, 1918, and 1926, respectively); two operas, The Ostrobothnians (1924) and Juha (1935); the ballet-pantomime, Okon Fuoko (1927); the Elegia from the Symphonic Suite (1909); the Kalevalic symphonic poem, Kullervo (1913); and, The Garden of Death (1918, r. 1919), a three-movement suite for solo piano. In the inventory that follows, the dates provided indicate the year of composition, unless otherwise preceded by an "r.", for revision; an "a.", for arrangement; or, an "fp.", for first performance. Where possible, names in the original Finnish are included, with English translations in parentheses.
At present, this list is incomplete, particularly in the songs and choral works subsections.

Notes, references, and sources
Notes
- The Okon Fuoko Suite is played without pause; moreover, the score does not make the kind of clear divisions typical of a multi-movement suite and no titles are provided. Typically, however, conductors have recorded the suite across six tracks, although John Storgårds and the Helsinki PO take just four. For more, see Okon Fuoko discography.
- The catalogue of Madetoja's works compiled by Lauriala (2005) at madetoja.org incorrectly lists the premiere date for the Concert Overture, Op. 7, as 14 November 1913. Pulliainen (2000b), in the liner notes to Vol. 2 of Madetoja's complete orchestral works (Volmer & Oulu SO), also gets the date wrong, writing "Kajanus' Finnish Orchestra [Helsinki PO] gave the first performance ... on October 10, 1913 in Madetoja's second composition concert".[26] This is clearly a typo, as Pulliainen gets the date of Madetoja's second composition concert, 14 October 1913, correct in the liner notes to Vol. 3.[27] The catalogue by Salmenhaara (1987) is thus the only one to list the correct date of the Concert Overture's first performance, 14 October. Pesonen (1982) makes no mention of a premiere date.
- Lauriala (2005) at madetoja.org lists the date of first performance as 1 November 1928, whereas Salmenhaara (1987) provides 1 October 1928.
- As Salmenhaara (1987) makes clear in his biography of Madetoja, the Nordic Joint Cantata Sagen i Norden was first performed in Copenhagen on 2 June 1929;[32] only later, in March 1930, did Madetoja himself conduct Finland's individual contribution in Finland.[33] The catalogue of Madetoja's works edited by Pesonen (1982) thus is incorrect when it lists the date of first performance as 6 March 1929 in Helsinki, with Leevi Madetoja conducting the Helsinki PO and Suomen Laulu.[30]
- The catalogue of Madetoja's works compiled by Lauriala (2005) at madetoja.org incorrectly lists the choir accompaniment as "male", although the score available on the same website calls for mixed choir. Salmenhaara (1987) and Pesonen (1982) each correctly list the choir as mixed ("sekakuorolle").
