Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) was a finish violinist and a composer. He wrote only classical music which represent Finland. Two of his writing are well known, "Valse triste" and "Finlandia". He composed the most of his music between 1880 and 1920.I was in Turku to visit and I saw that there was a concert in Sibelius museum. Moreover the music played was composed by Jean Sibelius and since we spoke about him in class I was interested about his writing. It was a piano concert and the pianist was Tuomas Nikkanen. He played "Zhen Stüke für Klavier, op.24", "Sonate, op.12" Cinq Morceaux pour piano, op.75" and "Finlandia, op.26".
Classical music it's a little special so I don't like everything but in these four writing my favourite was Finlandia. Why? Because it was interpreted well and when you are listening this music you can find the different pieces of Finland's history. I liked this concert and the place was very good to listen this kind of music (look picture).
