Great piece!

Sibelius was a musical genius.
Quiz The Karelia Suite was brilliant but for what 70s tv programme was it the theme music? |

This is the only live recording of Sibelius conducting his own music. It was certainly played at his funeral and I believe was the only piece of his work to be played. He wrote the tune for the 25th anniversary of a sawmill. It is my single favourite piece of Sibelius apart from the first half of his 7th Symphony (not that much wrong with the second half, mind! |

Witham - The Nice's version of the Karelia Suite is awful, mind you I loved it in 1968 at the Marquee
 American is better! |
