This series has already won numerous awards around the world and reaches its climax here with three of Sibelius' greatest symphonies: Andrew Mellor writes in his introductory text that "we hear music carried by forms of gravitational energy reminiscent of those that govern the course of a river".

First performed in March 1926, it is one of Sibelius's final orchestral works and is certainly his most fascinating composition for the theatre
