Symphonies 3 & 6

Album by Jean Sibelius & Royal Scottish National Orchestra & Sir Alexander Gibson

Symphonies 3 & 6 are orchestral works by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, composed in 1907 and 1923 respectively. They showcase Sibelius's evolving symphonic style, moving from late-romantic textures to a more austere, economy-driven approach marked by modal harmonies, distinctive orchestral colours and concise thematic development, and represent a transition between his earlier romanticism and later modernist tendencies.
