There is still much to discover in Sibelius oeuvre: with the first volume of the choral works, the Complete Edition is now opening up a new chapter. The Finnish composers many little a cappella choral pieces are still hardly known beyond the borders of Finland and Sweden. They are often very simple pieces that consciously seek the proximity of the folk song. Thanks to the complete CD recording of Sibelius works, we are able to listen to everything he wrote, and the white spots still found on the Sibelius map have been livened up with little splashes of color. Its time to discover these Northern Lights!
