Enchanting.

This is my favorite of his theatre music suites. Hark The Robin is utterly flawless

For me, "Swanwhite" represents one of Sibelius's more capricious scores in keeping with its fairytale subject matter. Some enigmatic delicacies : "The Harp" (3:00 - 6:21); "Listen, The Robin Sings" (9:06 - 14:01); "Swanwhite And The Prince" (18:08 - 21:40).

The Harp is beautiful beyond words

He created so many theatre scores! Many with mythic/fae themes. The Finns are masters of folk tales. True appreciators of the Mythopoeic.

My favourite composer after Debussy and Ravel

Devo confessare che non conoscevo quest'opera che mi è risultata bellissima come la stragrande musica di Sibelius . Poi il superlativo Jarni, come sempre, riesce a rendere ben chiara la profondità e lo spessore di ogni nota anche ad un primo ascolto. Complimenti.
