This is the last of three volumes containing the complete Sibelius recordings conducted by Robert Kajanus in performances which carry the composer’s imprimatur. Sibelius said of Kajanus that “there are none who have gone deeper and given [my symphonies] more feeling and beauty”. The volatility and extended climaxes of Symphony No 3 are perfectly shaped. Symphony No 5 also takes flight majestically, not least in the ‘swan theme’ of the finale.
