Founded in 1982, this orchestra offers here a classy standard of playing, plus the conductor-and-orchestra chemistry that’s needed to generate musical results as memorable as these, and in three very different works...But the finest listening experience comes in Sibelius’s last and perhaps greatest symphony.
