Sibelius - Complete Original Piano Music, Vol.5
Catalog Number: BIS230
This album presents Jean Sibelius’s piano miniatures, written between 1913 and the early 1920s. From the evocative Tree Pieces and Flower Pieces to the Bagatelles and Six Pieces Op. 94, the music blends impressionistic nature sketches with lyrical elegance. These works reveal a more intimate and poetic side of Sibelius, far from his large orchestral canvases, yet filled with atmosphere, charm, and striking character.
Sibelius - Complete Original Piano Music, Vol.5
This album offers a portrait of Jean Sibelius as a composer for the piano, gathering works from 1913 to the early 1920s. The Tree Pieces (Op. 75) transform the Finnish forest into sound, each movement capturing the spirit of a birch, pine, or aspen. The Flower Pieces (Op. 85) lean toward refined pianistic elegance, while the Six Pieces Op. 94 and Six Bagatelles Op. 97 move in a more classical, abstract direction, with subtle references to Schumann, Beethoven, and even Spanish color. Together with smaller occasional works, these miniatures form a vivid gallery of moods—lyrical, melancholic, whimsical, or virtuosic—revealing Sibelius’s private, poetic voice beyond the symphonies for which he is best known.
