¡Sibelius: Symphony No.2
¡Classical V.A.
Description
[Machine Translation] Following the first pairing of Sibelius' Symphony No. 1 and En Saga with the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, of which he is the chief conductor, this is the second program of Sibelius' Symphony No. 2 and Christian II. The unique interpretation of phrasing and dunamik, which was heard in the first symphony, was also demonstrated here. This spins out a new story, depicting the work from a different perspective, and finally reaches a climax that envelops the audience in a magnificent landscape. The coupling piece, "Christian II," is a suite of music for a play written by Sibelius just before he completed his First Symphony, based on a play by his friend Adolf Paul about a real king who ruled Scandinavia in the 16th century. It is a fine work, typical of Sibelius, that combines simple beauty with a large scale in its youthful writing.
