In his native Finland, he has the reputation of a latter-day Sibelius in London, his compositions are beginning to be a permanent part of the new music repertoire and in the United States, the Los Angeles Philharmonic records his work. This spring, Lindberg has been named Fromm Professor of Music at Harvard, a post previously held by Peter Maxwell Davies (1985), Gunther Schuller (1991), and Betsy Jolas (1994), among others. A concert of Lindbergs works will be presented at 8 p.m. on April 15 in John Knowles Paine Concert Hall.https://dev.news.harvard.edu/gazette/wp-content/uploads/2006/04/21-lindberg-1.jpg
