Ace, I heard some music on Swedish cop show a few weeks ago, knew I knew it, but could not place it, it's been so long. I was pretty sure it was Sibelius though so have been listening to various pieces off and on and here it is here The Swan of Tuonela.I am a happy, if tearful, girl now. I used to play this stuff all the time, but that stopped when I got married, my wife could not stand that 'old squit' as she put it. Country and western, not my thing at all but I had to put up with it. But she's been my ex now a good few years and I can do more or less as I like.

I live in the American south South Carolina specifically and am just now discovering this most wonderful, mesmerizing composer. RUclips with a few dollars to banish advertisements is presenting me with such amazing music, composers, performers, and conductors. Right now it's Sibelius all the time for me. It has been so nice to read comments from music lovers around the world.
How I adore the first movement of this exceptional work. Sibelius at his finest which means of course music doesn’t get any better than this. Paavo Jarvi is a great Sibelius conductor without doubt and the playing of the Stockholm Philharmonic is magnificent. However I’ve yet to hear a performance that can surpass or quite match that of Ormandy/Philadelphia Orch from the late 1970’s.
Sibelius fue un compositor con una sensibilidad profunda y misteriosa, que en su música transmite emociones que resultan en quien lo escucha, muy enigmáticas, por sus diversos y múltiples significados. Escucharlo es un verdadero deleite.
I would not say this is the clearest example of it, but the national romantics didn't shy away from patriotism. Sibelius also composed some pieces of famous and now traditional military music where this is more explicit and admitted by him literally. Jaeger march, for example, which was composed by him to the words of a Finnish jaeger in Germany, in preparation for fighting for Finnish independence, was inspired according to him while he was gripped by tremendous spirit of patriotism. This goes a long way from modern spirit, which disregards the fate of the country, let alone the people. Serious times produced serious personalities. Life or death themes were experienced personally by the generations of the past.
Por obras como esta Sibelius es mi compositor favorito. Uso esta maravilla para estudiar cuando estoy desmotivado y me siento mal. Me levanta y por momentos tengo que detener el estudio para apreciar a pleno esta obra y por otros momentos lloro de emoción por la gran genialidad del maestro
I often listen to the works of Sibelius provided by several uploaders on YT but don't always take the opportunity to say thanks. So--thanks! The last movement is an exhilarating ride! I have to catch my breath.
When the world crumbles, when the structures of a civilization falter, it is good to return to that which in history does not flex, but on the contrary recovers courage, gathers the separated, pacifies without bruising. It’s worth recalling that the genius of creation is also moving in an history devoted to the destruction 💙
@M S Right ... I saw & heard fountains of chocolate milk gush from her paradise, without laughing the stars began to chat and ceased to scroll and we to grab hold of their golds at dawn. The sun was dizzy and the moon, stirred, hid behind a section of clouds in the shape of a barbapapa 🦄
"The Swan of Tuonella" uses four images, how many are you referring to? The first, second, and fourth images can be easily identified with an image search, but the third image was created by myself by processing multiple images, so no other identical image exists. Thanks.
@alexgianrio il tuo commento mi sembra il tema che la maestra dava alle scuole elementari...Potevi anche scrivere: il sole e' giallo e caldo, voglio bene alla mamma e al babbo, ho chiesto una bicicletta a babbo natale....Lascia stare che e' meglio.
Sibelius's music caresses me without punching me in the face. What a beautiful imagination to reach out.
Do you often otherwise get punched in the face while being caressed?

Hyvää Sibeliuksen päivää!
I'm impressed with this great performance.Sibelius is one of my favorite composer💙💙💙
mine too
@@daydays12and mine! En Saga is one of my favourite!
@@elephantsdontforget Good to hear that 🙂 Greetings to you from a Brit living in France, where Sibelius is not so popular!

This music embodys the spull of Finland: its lakes, its trees, its solitude, to be among nature and its uncertainties
Most mystical work by any major composer. Spellbinding.
Jeg har genopdaget Sibelius. Er vokset op med hans musik.
Austria gave us Mozart, Germany Wagner and Finland is magistrally represented by SIBELIUS! Unique composer!
It seems I am wandering in a mystic labyrinth of Finland

His patriotism is the stronghold of my soul
愛国心とは少し異なる気もしますが。日本の伝説や民俗説話（の持つ幻想性）に対して私たちが抱く憧れや畏れ、といったものに近いのではないでしょうか。

It's all a tremendously satisfying journey when I enter a Sebelious piece I've never heard.💖

" Uso esta maravilla para estudiar cuando estoy desmotivado y me siento mal." Eu também.
Sibelius’s music is so haunting. Has a shimmering, completely northern style.

The above is a quote found oddly all over the internet, but never with attribution.
Weird did you say? Indeed, how strange 😏🧐 @@hortenseweinblatt1508
Ich liebe Jean Sibelius.
one of the most menacing Lemmininkainen's Return I've ever heard. Though Barbarolli's ending of it is more satisfying.
I love Barbirolli's performance, but it's a pity he only recorded two tunes, "Tuonelan joutsen" and "Lemminkäinen kotiinpaluu".
Yes, I agree whole-heartedly on Sir John's recording. But this is quite good -- very dark.
The water temperature is just right !
Good sound quality
The third movement though...
💚
I like to call this Sibelius Symphony No 8. It's not of course. But ---------------------------
What is the painting for the Swan of Tuenola? It is superb.

film "composers" are always ripping off romantic composers ...the music for "the Lord of the Rings" trilogy of films was ripped off from Sibelius too.
