My symphony to a soccer ‘bad-boy’

विवरण

Osmo Tapio Everton Räihälä is a Finnish composer who is crazy about Everton football club. Growing up almost two thousand miles away wouldn’t stop him from living and breathing everything Everton, so much so that as a young composer he took drastic measures to keep his fledgling music career on track. One such inspiration came in the towering figure of the club’s Scottish centre forward, Duncan Ferguson who, though blessed with talent, was often in trouble both on and off the pitch. Their lives and fortunes would be end up being entwined but on the night Osmo was debuting his most famous work about Ferguson, the football gods weren’t following the score.Presenter: Jo Fidgen Producer: Edgar Maddicott Get in touch: outlook@bbc.com(Photo: Duncan Ferguson celebrates after he scored his first goal for Everton in the Merseyside derby.
