About

Winner of a Gramophone Award, this definitive set presents the rare opportunity to hear the complete songs, performed by Elisabeth Söderström and Tom Krause accompanied by Vladimir Ashkenazy and Irwin Cage. Sung texts with English translation included.

Sibelius’ extensive output of songs comprises 109 compositions. The majority of the songs are included in the composer's eight song opuses. Music scholars consider the songs to occupy a central place in Sibelius’s output.

Remarkably, this is the FIRST INTERNATIONAL CD RELEASE. There was a UK LOCAL release of this set on CD, which a few markets adopted, but many markets will not have seen this Award-winning recording since LP days.
