Description:

Finlandia/Swan Of Tuonela/Oceanides/En Saga/Valse Trist by Eugene Ormandy, released 7 June 2018. This version of Finlandia/Swan Of Tuonela/Oceanides/En Saga/Valse Trist comes as a 1xCD. - BBC NATIONAL ORCHESTRA OF WALES/THOMAS SONDERGARD

Described as 'one of the great new Sibelian teams' (The Herald), Thomas Søndergård and BBC National Orchestra of Wales continue their shared fascination with the orchestral music of Sibelius. Released one month after BBC NOW celebrates it's ninetieth anniversary, this recording includes many of Sibelius' most famous masterpieces. Sibelius established his credentials early on with the tonally adventurous en saga, which brings to mind the excellence of Berlioz' orchestral writing. Sibelius' successful foray into the impressionistic tone world of Debussy resulted in the haunting seascape of The Oceanides. Sibelius wrote it was 'pure inspiration' that led to the composition of the perpetually popular Finlandia, with it's world-famous hymn motif. The wonderfully descriptive Swan of Tuonela finds Sibelius at his mystical best as he casts the cor anglais as the majestic swan from Finnish mythology. Sibelius: Finlandia is a fitting finale to this Sibelius series which also includes critically acclaimed recordings of four of his symphonies.
