    At home with Sibelius

    Some news here of a fascinating looking book for all Sibelians and some interesting links to other Sibelius related articles- (just click on any highlighted text.) And at the bottom another link to some fascinating home movie footage of the great man.

    Hello Mr. Pee, I bought this splendid book when it was announced at the 2010 Lahti Sibelius Festival (a magnificent event by any standards). It is absolutely first class. I was also at the launching of Andrew Barnett's outstanding book on Sibelius back in 2007.
    As a complete 'nut case' I now have fifty-six recordings of Sibelius's 2nd Symphony!

    Sincerely, John J. Davis, Newton Abbot, Devon. UK. (KCII)

      I thought this one might attract you, KCII

      By the way, when I registered you I added your details as a signature (appears every time without you having to write it in).
      It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

          Oh it's about the composer. Now where I spend much of my online time such a topic heading would have been about notation software.
