Today's show continues my Sibelius symphony cycle with his glorious 5th symphony. Originally completed in 1915, he completely revised it in 1919. The symphony features a very tightly constructed three movement work which uses a limited range of musical material and themes in an almost obsessively repetitive way, yet he achieves a stunning, emotional, and dramatic piece of music.
