Oramo conducts Adès, Coleridge-Taylor and Sibelius

“Lemminkaïnen, reckless hero, in his veins the blood of ages…” In the Finnish legends of the Kalevala, Lemminkaïnen was a warrior like no other: loving, hunting and vanquishing death itself. Sibelius knew all those ancient tales, and he retells them in music as vivid as any film score – the climax to a whole evening of fantastic tales from Sakari Oramo and the BBC Symphony Orchestra.
