Sakari Oramo, CBSO - Sibelius: Symphony No. 5 in E Flat Major, Op. 82: III. Allegro molto

We further mark the recent 69th anniversary of the death of Sibelius on 20 September 1957 with this performance of Sakari Oramo conducting the exhilarating finale of Sibelius’s Symphony No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 82, with the City Of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. This performance comes from a 2000 tour concert in which Oramo and the CBSO performed music by Rautavaara, Prokofiev and Sibelius, with pianist Olli Mustonen. Watch the full concert on our streaming service STAGE+: https://www.stage-plus.com/video/vod_concert_APNM8GRFDPHMASJKBSRJCD0 With its opening sunrise and vaulting “Swan Hymn”, Sibelius’s Fifth Symphony is one of the defining masterpieces of Finnish music, and it’s been at the centre of Sakari Oramo’s repertoire since the start of his conducting career. This concert finds him on tour in 2000 as music director of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra – an ensemble with a long Sibelius tradition of its own – and striking sparks off his young compatriot Olli Mustonen in Prokofiev’s dazzling Piano Concerto No. 3. Oramo opens with the haunting Lintukoto by the late Einojuhani Rautavaara: one of the undisputed masters of Finnish music in the generation since Sibelius.
