Sibelian Landscapes

St David's Hall, Cardiff Tapiola, god of the Finnish pine forests, inspired Sibelius's most elemental work, full of the quiet terror of the forest and culminating in one of the most furious storms in all music - it will have you grabbing the arms of your seat.

Like Tapiola, Sibelius's Violin Concerto will draw you into a powerful dark natural world of intense slow-burning passion. Elgar's The Music Makers is one of his most private and personal work, with nostalgic quotations from his other music woven into its fabric.
