Symphonies nos. 1 & 3

Album by Jean Sibelius & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra & Owain Arwel Hughes

Symphonies nos. 1 & 3 are orchestral works by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, composed in 1899 and 1907 respectively. The music contrasts the First Symphony's youthful, richly Romantic textures and dramatic gestures with the Third's more concise, classically balanced and motivically economical language, marking a clear development in Sibelius's compositional voice and his role in early 20th-century orchestral music.
