Symphony No.2 / En Saga
Album by Jean Sibelius
Symphony No. 2 and the tone poem En Saga are orchestral works by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, composed in 1902 and 1892 respectively. Both pieces exemplify Sibelius's late-Romantic Nordic orchestral style with broad melodic arcs, modal harmonies and evocative orchestration, and together they mark a pivotal stage in his development as a symphonist and his emergence on the European musical scene.
First released: 2006
