Sibelius: Andante Festivo (Musical Journeys)
Показать описание
Helsinki: Temppeliaukio Church
Temppeliaukio Church is in the Töölö district of Helsinki. This remarkable Lutheran church is built into the rock and was designed by Timo and Tuomo Suomaleinen. Work on an earlier proposed building was interrupted by the war and the present building was started in 1968 and completed the following year. Natural light comes through the dome, capped by copper, and the organ was the work of Veikko Virtunen. The acoustic properties fo the church with its walls formed by the untreated rock-face, have made it a suitable place for concerts.
THE MUSIC
Sibelius’s Andante Festivo was written in 1922 and designed originally for string quartet, but re-arranged for string orchestra with optional timpani, narrowly preceding in order of composition the sixth of his seven symphonies.
Capella Istropolitana, cond. Adrian Leaper
J. Sibelius: Romance, Andante Festivo & Canzonetta
