Sibelius Complete Symphonies
Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, Arvo Volmer conductor, Adele Anthony violin

4 CD Set

The greatest symphonist of the 20th century was also the last great Romantic. This release of the complete Sibelius symphonies is a landmark for an Australian orchestra. The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra are directed by their Chief Conductor Arvo Volmer in these glorious, majestic works. Also included are Sibelius favourites, Valse Triste, Finlandia and the mighty Violin Concerto (with renowned virtuoso Adele Anthony). Arvo Volmer has built an international reputation for his interpretations of the music of northern Europe, most notably his homeland Estonia and nearby Finland. On 4CDs in a stunning slipcase, this release will please the connoisseur and the collector but also holds immense appeal for those who love the majesty of a grand orchestral sound.
