Korvat auki r.y. (Finnish: "Ears Open") is a Finnish society, founded in 1977 to advocate and import contemporary music and whose work primarily focuses on younger composers.[1] The founders include Kaija Saariaho, Jouni Kaipainen, Magnus Lindberg, Olli Kortekangas, Eero Hämeenniemi, and Esa-Pekka Salonen. The society organizes concerts and seminars. Initiated by the society, two ensembles have been created to perform new music in Finland: Toimii and Zagros.
