Finlandia

There's a cold mystique about this work from Finland's most famous composer, but at its heart is a warmth that overflows with beauty. Well known to many listeners, Finlandia displays a strong sense of nationalistic strength in its mighty brass and soaring strings. Owen Goldsmith's adaptation eliminates a few of the technical difficulties and includes generous cross-cuings. The brass double tonguing is still there, but so is all the power!
