Who was Emil Kauppi?

He wrote two operas. The first, in 1925, was "Päiväkummun pidot", which was well received by critics. The second, in 1930, was "Nummisuutarit", which received only poor reviews.

In October 1930, shortly after the premiere of "Nummisuutarit", he disappeared and is thought to have committed suicide.
