Symphony no. 1 / Karelia Suite / Finlandia

Album by Jean Sibelius & Oslo‐Filharmonien & Mariss Jansons

This release is a compilation of orchestral works by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, composed and first performed in the 1890s (1893–1899). The music blends late-Romantic orchestral writing with nationalistic motifs and vivid orchestral colour, representing an early phase in Sibelius's career that helped establish his distinctive voice in Finnish and European music at the fin de siècle.
