Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra

Jukka-Pekka Saraste conducts the Rotterdam Philharmonic in an all-Sibelius concert recorded in 2019, including the Second Symphony and, with Baiba Skride, the Violin Concerto.

Jukka-Pekka Saraste conducts the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra in an all-Sibelius concert recorded at De Doelen in November 2019. Baiba Skride is the soloist in Sibelius's Violin Concerto, and in the second half, the evergreen Symphony No.2.

During the interval you can hear more music by Sibelius which reflects some of the influences he absorbed in his early years - his teacher Martin Wegelius, his friend Ferruccio Busoni and, of course, Finnish folk music.
