	Jean Sibelius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jean Sibelius was part of a wave of composers who accepted the norms of late 19th Century composition, but sought to radically simplify the internal construction of the music.
		Sibelius built much of his music with melodies that have very powerful modal implications, and that are drawn out over a number of notes.
		Sibelius (as reported in the Manchester Guardian newspaper in 1958) summed up the style of his later works by saying that while other composers were engaged in manufacturing cocktails, he offered the public pure cold water.

	Finnish Music Information Centre
		Sibelius, who only a month before had noted in his diary that he was hammering away at the first movement of his symphony, could now promise no more than that he would return to the matter at a later date.
		According to the receipts, Sibelius bought some music paper from Westerlund's the music shop in January 1933 and spring 1935 and he is not known to have composed or arranged anything between 1931 and 1938 apart from the 8th symphony and a minor choral arrangement in autumn 1935.
		Sibelius nevertheless kept this a secret and led people to understand even as late as the 1950s that it was still maturing.

	NPR: Performance Today -- Sibelius Symphonies
		Sibelius wrote his First Symphony in 1899, when he was 33 years old and already celebrated as a national hero in Finland.
		Sibelius' final symphony reaches toward a Romantic Era ideal of unity: a single-movement work where the composer's ideas align flawlessly with the music as it moves from tempo to tempo.
		Sibelius' main interest growing up was music; he began piano studies at age 9, and picked up the violin at age 15.

		Johan Sibelius was at a famous musical academy when he came into possesion of some calling-cards formerly belonging to a dead relative named Jean Sibelius.

		Jean Sibelius' 50th birthday was celebrated as a national holiday in Finland during the war years in the 1900's.

	SIBELIUS The Seventh Symphony - An Inktroduction - INKPOT
		Sibelius planned it alongside the composition of the Fifth and Sixth Symphonies, which were also the final homes for material from Kuutar.
		Sibelius apparently abandoned the multi-movement plan in favour of a continuous single movement in 1923, and the Seventh was completed on 2nd March 1924, 75 years ago.
		At some point, Sibelius seemed to realise that what he had created was perhaps what he had always sought in symphonic thought: total unity of musical expression based on the organic development of the briefest of material.

	Sibelius, by Leopold Stokowski (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Although in classical form, it is a free and rhapsodic expression of Sibelius' inner life of feeling and fantastic imagination - it is the essence of Finland.
		Sibelius retains the classical four parts of symphonic form, but fills them with utterly original and often explosive music.
		Typical of Sibelius is contrast of the savage with the tender, of the dark timbres with the brilliant, of the combining of a theme expressing both Fate and Hope, sounding in relief above a melancholy and monotonous background.

	The Solo Songs of Jean Sibelius
		Among the nearly 150 vocal pieces that Sibelius composed, there are, indeed, certain pearls in the art of song, and they deserve closer examination and familiarization on the part of the foreign audiences.
		Above all, Sibelius was deeply inspired by the lyric nature poetry of J. Runeberg; some of Sibelius's finest songs are to the texts of Runeberg.
		It is surprising, as Cecil Gray, a Sibelius biographer, points out, "that he should have written so much for an instrument which he does not seem to understand, and even appears positively to dislike and despise." It is not unexpected then that the piano parts in his songs appear relatively inferior.

	Sibelius — Finland's voice in the world — Virtual Finland
		Sibelius was born in 1865 at Hämeenlinna, a provincial garrison town in south-central Finland, where his father was a doctor.
		The Sibelius cult in the Anglo-Saxon world where he was hailed as a symphonist of the order of Brahms and second only to Beethoven, while in Germany he was grossly neglected, must have been inhibiting factors.
		The neglect Sibelius suffered in the German-speaking world during the 1920s and later in the decades immediately following the second world war should not obscure the fact that it was Germany that launched him in the first decade of the century.

	Sibelius, Jean (1865 - 1957) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Sibelius grew to maturity at a time of fervent Finnish nationalism, as the country broke away from its earlier Swedish and later Russian overlords.
		Brought up in a Swedish-speaking family, Sibelius acquired a knowledge of Finnish language and traditional literature at school and the early Finnish sagas proved a strong influence on his subsequent work as a composer.
		Sibelius wrote incidental music for Maeterlinck's Pelléas et Mélisande and for Belshazzar's Feast, a play by Procope, with a Prelude and two suites from a score for Shakespeare's The Tempest.

		These are some of Sibelius' most accessible works, with powerful gestures and irresistible melodies, capturing both the ardent fire of the Finnish spirit and the combined beauty and melancholia of her landscape.
		Sibelius' treatment of nature manifests in the simultaneous evocation of all the beauty and terror of nature and the elemental forces of creation -- a fitting metaphor for the nature of the creative artist.
		In many of Sibelius' works, indeed, there is often a palpable sense of some primal force, as if the music is driven by the ghostly energies of ancient legends.

	Ainola: Sibelius at Home
		His features were firm-set and forbidding; his steel-blue eyes surveyed his surroundings with a degree of sharpness which was often mistaken for contempt, and his voice had a deep and sonorous sound despite the fact that he spoke in a common dialect.
		This Spartan spirit is pleasingly complemented by original works of art that adorn the log walls of many of the rooms, such as a painting of Aino by her brother; a drawing of Sibelius by Albert Edelfelt, one of the family’s many artist friends.
		Sibelius lived in the solitude of his beloved Ainola, withdrawn from the world, but certainly not forgotten of the world.
