Kokemäenjoki

[12] In spite of the turbidity of the water, there are exceptionally good conditions for boating, as the river retreats carried out in the 18th to the 19th century have reduced the number of stones and water level withdrawals by power plants have destroyed the rapids.

Power stations discourage taking long boat journeys, but the lightest watercraft can move fairly unobstructed on the river and rotate the power plants along designated circuitous routes.

Flooding sometimes raised the water level by 2—3 metres, causing all the goods left on the river's impact to be washed away with the water.

Spring departures were the most violent event on the river, under which all structures had to be dismantled already in the autumn.

The biggest impact is right near the power stations in their upper reaches, where water level elevation variations can be a couple of metres.

The natural fall heights of three successive rapids were 3.5 metres from the upper reaches, including in Havingnkoski, 7.25 metres in Harjavalta and 6.6 metres in Lammainen- eli Pirilänkoski.

The rapids of Kaukolan-Tyrvääkylä were created on the site, which, as the sea level decreased further, became longer.

[17] In historical times, the displacement of the mouth of the river has also affected human activity, as the previous port places have become too low, and the river mouth harbour has moved first from Ulvila to Pori, then from Pori to Mäntyluoto and finally to Tahkoluoto.

Bruckner and Adolf Hitler were both native to Upper Austria.


Question: What did Joseph Bruckner die of?

Anton Bruckner

[3] Moreover, both admired Wagner.


Question: What did Joseph Bruckner die of?

Anton Bruckner

These considerations apparently increased Hitler's interest in Bruckner.

Anton Bruckner

Bruckner's religiosity, however, was a trait that did not fit in with Nazi purposes, and therefore this aspect of the composer was downplayed.

Anton Bruckner

Thus, Herbert von Karajan was not allowed to conduct Bruckner's motets in a concert where Bruckner's Fifth Symphony was performed.


Question: What did Joseph Bruckner die of?

The slow section of the Seventh Symphony was being played on German radio as the news broke of Hitler's death.


Question: What did Joseph Bruckner die of?

Anton Bruckner

However, the “Nazi connection” of Bruckner's music today does no harm to his reputation as a composer, because no one can argue that Bruckner's thinking — quite unlike Wagner in particular — or his music had anything to do with Nazism.


Question: What did Joseph Bruckner die of?

Anton Bruckner

In the early part of the 20th century, Bruckner's music also suffered from limitations of recording technology, due to the difficulty of getting long works to fit on sound discs.

However, in the course of LPs and later CDs, the issue has been fixed.


Question: What did Joseph Bruckner die of?

Anton Bruckner

Of Bruckner's symphonies, all can fit on a single CD except for the slowest recordings of the Fifth and Eighth Symphonies (though the average length of recordings of these works is less than eighty minutes), as well as a supplemented version of the Ninth Symphony.
