Antti Auvinen's Delfiinimeditaatio (A Dolphin Meditation) is set to Harry Salmenniemi's short story. The work was a commission by the Dominante Choir, for its 45th anniversary.
The text is in Finnish. Salmennime's prose gets a modern treatment by Auvinen: repetitions of words and syllables, cutting, onomatopoetism, hissing and sprachgesang methods are employed.
