Sibelius (1925-1957) - The Rest is Silence
Donald Macleod introduces an extended performance of Sibelius' Prelude and Suites of incidental music composed for a performance of The Tempest in 1926. Donald MacLeod then explores and explodes the mythology cloaking the last decades of Sibelius' life - a period not quite as 'silent' as legend might have us believe.
