Finnish composers

As someone who has extensive knowledge of Finland, I can say that 
Sibelius is the only composer even close to well-known outside of 
Finland (and even among its own citizens), so the question starting 
off with "This Finnish composer" in which the answer is not Sibelius 
is inviting a neg. If I had been in a room with this question, I would 
have been guaranteed a neg. If one wanted to write a question about 
another Finnish composer outside of Sibelius probably should have 
started the question with some other phrase. Just my two cents worth.
