History
R.E. Westerlund and Konrad Georg Fazer bought a Helsinki music shop in 1897 and quickly expanded it to include publishing operations. Westerlund owned another small Helsinki music shop, however, and in 1904 he decided that he would sell his stock in Fazer's shop so as to dedicate more time to his own business.[1]
By the 1960s, Westerlund was apparently most concentrated in the business of popular music, and they were acquired by Fazer in 1967.[2]
