Album

This is a highly-regarded Sibelius symphony cycle with the late Paavo Berglund conducting the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. The recordings were made between 1972 and 1978 at various venues in and around London and Southampton. The set also includes the tone poems. Five hours of Sibelius, 14 great works including 7 symphonies, a range of approaches to the natural world, one of the world's greatest conductors - Paavo Berglund. There are two movements from the jovial Karelia Suite. There is the melancholy inner grace of one of the Lemminkainen Legends depicting the Swan of Tuonela with lovely cor anglais playing. Recordings by Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and Paavo Berglund: Bliss: Suite from Miracle in the Gorbals Cello Concerto with Arto Noras. Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. Sibelius: Complete Symphonies 17 and Orchestral Works Including World Premiere Recording of Kullervo Symphony. In September 1995 the orchestra, conducted by Richard Hickox, was the first to give a complete concert cycle of the symphonies of Ralph Vaughan Williams. The orchestra under Paavo Berglund made the world premiere recording of Sibelius's Kullervo in 1970. Paavo Berglund and the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra recorded this cycle of the symphonies of Jean Sibelius between 1972 and 1978, with additional recordings of the tone poems dating from the same period. These analog recordings have held up remarkably well over the years, and the sound, which is surprisingly warm and vibrant, has lost little in the digital transfer.
