Sibelius: Symphony No.... - Christian Tetzlaff - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Conductor Nicholas Collon’s second Sibelius album with the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra focuses on works written by Sibelius just before World War I, culminating in the 5th Symphony, one of the composer’s most significant symphonic works. Two opuses for violin and orchestra, Two Serenades and Two Serious Melodies—one of Sibelius’ most religious compositions—feature star violinist Christian Tetzlaff. Sibelius’ music for Strindberg’s symbolist play Swanwhite is a rarely performed gem with intriguing thematic connections to other works included on this album, including the 5th Symphony.
