The Origin of Fire (Finnish: Tulen Synty), Op. 32, is a single-movement cantata for baritone, male choir, and orchestra written in 1902 by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. It premiered on 9 April 1902 at the opening of the National Helsinki Theatre, conducted by the composer. It was later revised in 1910. The idea behind the cantata is taken from the Finnish national epic, the Kalevala. Some of the sketches for the piece can be related back to 1893 to 1894.
