Description
Sibelius Studies presents a new perspective on the life and work of this renowned composer. The book explores Sibelius's symphonies and tone poems within the broader context of European music, tracing its development from late romanticism to modernism. A unique aspect of the book is its examination of the relationship between Sibelius as an individual and his creative output. Drawing on previously unpublished materials such as sketches, diaries, and letters, Timothy L. Jackson and Veijo Murtomäki shed new light on this fascinating composer's life and work.
