Kullervo

Album by Jean Sibelius & Minnesota Orchestra & Ylioppilaskunnan Laulajat & Lilli Paasikivi & Tommi Hakala & Osmo Vänskä

Kullervo is a choral symphony by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, written in 1892. The work combines late-Romantic orchestral writing with prominent vocal forces and folk-inspired thematic material drawn from Finnish legend, and it stands as an early, formative milestone in Sibelius's development of a national-romantic voice.
