Kullervo
Album by Jean Sibelius & BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra & Thomas Dausgaard & Helena Juntunen & Benjamin Appl & Lunds studentsångare
Kullervo is a symphonic work by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, completed and first performed in 1892. The piece blends choral and orchestral forces with dramatic national‑romantic material drawn from the Kalevala, and it occupies a significant place as an early large-scale statement that foreshadowed Sibelius's later symphonic development.
