This is a featured list. Click here for more information.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Finnish composer

Jean Sibelius in 1890. He composed seven symphonies over the course of his career. A recording of the complete set is called the "Sibelius cycle".

The Finnish composerJean Sibelius (1865–1957) was one of the most importantsymphonists of the early twentieth century: his sevensymphonies, written between 1899 and 1924, are the core ofhisoeuvre and stalwarts of thestandard concert repertoire.[1] As such, many of classical music's conductor–orchestra partnerships haverecorded the complete set, colloquially known as the "Sibeliuscycle".[2] Specifically, the standard cycle includes:

Although early advocates such asRobert Kajanus,Sir Thomas Beecham, andSerge Koussevitzky had conducted many of Sibelius's symphonies forgramophone in the 1930s and 1940s, none of these Sibelians recorded all seven.[19] Instead, the earliest complete traversal dates to 1953, four years before the composer's death on 20 September 1957; it is bySixten Ehrling and theStockholm Radio Orchestra, recorded from 1952 to 1953 for the Swedish labelMetronome Records (released byMercury Records in the United States). Ehrling had outpacedAnthony Collins and theLondon Symphony Orchestra, whose cycle—recorded from 1952 to 1955 onDecca Records—was concurrent with Ehrling's but arrived second.[2] Since these two pioneering examples, the Sibelius cycle has, as of May 2025[update], been recorded an additional 49 times. The most recently completed (51st) cycle, finished in 2025, is byJukka-Pekka Saraste and theHelsinki Philharmonic Orchestra; an additional two projected cycles are in progress, according to press releases.

A number of conductors have tackled the project more than once.Paavo Berglund (1977, 1987, 1997, 1998) recorded the Sibelius cycle four times, whileSir Colin Davis (1976, 1994, 2008) and Saraste (1989, 1993, 2025) have done so three times. Furthermore,Akeo Watanabe (1962, 1981),Lorin Maazel (1968, 1992),Leif Segerstam (1992, 2004),Neeme Järvi (1985, 2005),Vladimir Ashkenazy (1984, 2007),Pietari Inkinen (2009, 2013),Sir Simon Rattle (1987, 2015), andOsmo Vänskä (1997, 2015) have recorded the cycle twice. (Leonard Bernstein completed one cycle, in 1967, but died in the middle of a second.)[h]

Additionally, the Sibelius cycle can, in its non-standard form, include its "grand precursor"[20]Kullervo (Op. 7, 1892), which some commentators view as aprogrammaticchoral symphony.[21] This perspective conceptualizesKullervo as Sibelius'sde facto "Symphony No. 0",[22] thus expanding his completed contributions to the symphonic canon from seven to eight. Eleven of the 51 cycles includeKullervo as a supplement.

Precursors: 1930–1947

[edit]
From 1930 to 1932,Robert Kajanus made premiere recordings of theFirst,Second,Third, andFifth symphonies, but his death in July 1933 prevented him from completing the first cycle.
Sergei Koussevitzky was the first to program the entire cycle in a concert season (1932–1933, Boston); he also made the premiere recording (1933) of theSeventh with theBBC Symphony Orchestra.
Sir Thomas Beecham's recordings of theFourth and theSixth replaced Schnéevoigt's in theHMV catalogue; Sibelius called the latter his "favourite recording of any of his symphonies".
In 1934,Georg Schnéevoigt and theHelsinki Philharmonic Orchestra made the premiere recording of the Sixth and the second of the Fourth; Sibelius expressed disappointment with the performances.

In 1930, the Finnish government, perceiving a wide audience for Sibelius's works, enlisted Britain'sColumbia Graphophone Company (later merged in 1931 withHis Master's Voice to formEMI) to record the First and Second symphonies.[23][24] The government's subsidization of such an artistic project (it contributed 50,000Finnish marks)[25] was, according to Sibelius's biographerErik Tawaststjerna, "an enlightened and at this time unprecedented gesture ... a measure of the unique importance Finland attached to Sibelius as a national figure".[26] Sibelius was permitted his choice of native-born conductors and selected his long-time interpreter,Robert Kajanus,[23][24] writing of the septuagenarian conductor, "Very many are the men who have conducted these symphonies during the last thirty years, but there are none who have gone deeper and given them more feeling and beauty than Robert Kajanus".[25]

The First and Second were recorded in theWestminster Central Hall on 21–23 and 27–28 May, respectively;[25][27] although the orchestra was credited as the "Royal Philharmonic Orchestra", the musicians were "largely drawn from the London Symphony [Orchestra], which could not be named for contractual reasons".[23][28] Two years later, in 1932, the British record producerWalter Legge founded theHis Master's Voice Sibelius Society, a subscription service that promised to record "all his [Sibelius's] major works and to culminate in the forthcomingEighth Symphony".[26] Legge enlisted Kajanus—by then in ill health[29]—to record the Third (21–22 June) and Fifth (22–23 June) symphonies atAbbey Road Studio No. 1, again with the London Symphony Orchestra (this time properly credited).[30] Each of Kajanus's recordings was a world premiere and, because of his close association with and personal selection by Sibelius, they "can generally be regarded as authoritative ... he communicates overwhelmingly a sense of total identification with the composer's mind".[31]

Legge andHis Master's Voice had planned for Kajanus to complete the cycle by recording the Fourth, Sixth, and Seventh symphonies, but the maestro's death on 6 July 1933 prevented it.[26] At Sibelius's "express wish",[26] they turned to the Finnish conductorGeorg Schnéevoigt to record the Fourth and the Sixth in June 1934; Schnéevoigt was touring London with the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra (it was billed as the "Finnish National Orchestra"), the principal conductorship of which he had inherited in April 1933 due to Kajanus's ill health. They recorded the Sixth in studio on 3 June (its world premiere recording) and the Fourth at a public concert on 4 June (its second recording, the premiere having been byLeopold Stokowski and thePhiladelphia Orchestra on 23 April 1932 forVictor Records).[29][32] However, Sibelius did not approve the test pressings of Schnéevoigt's Fourth and Legge did not issue it commercially; although Sibelius permitted the release of Schnéevoigt's Sixth, his response to the performance was tepid.[33][34]

With the Schnéevoigt recordings lacking favour, the English conductorSir Thomas Beecham stepped in to fill the void: for Legge, he and theLondon Philharmonic Orchestra recorded the Fourth on 10 December 1937 at Abbey Road.[35] To prepare this performance, Beecham referenced a "detailed list of [Sibelius's] comments concerning tempi, phrasing, note durations, and so on", which the composer had sent to Legge upon hearing Schnéevoigt's Fourth.[33] As such, Beecham's performance is seen as adhering more closely to Sibelius's standards. Ten years later, in 1947, Beecham and theRoyal Philharmonic Orchestra would displace Schnéevoigt's Sixth, recording the work for Legge from May to November 1947 at Kingsway Hall.[35] According toRobert Layton, Sibelius is said to have referred to Beecham's Sixth as "his favourite recording of any of his symphonies".[36][i]

A final important Sibelian from this period was the Russian émigré conductorSerge Koussevitzky,[37] an "energetic disciple" to whom Sibelius had promised the world premiere of the ever-elusiveEighth Symphony.[38][j] Koussevitzky and theBoston Symphony Orchestra performed the entire cycle during the 1932–1933 season (a programming first),[40][k] and while in London to guest conduct theBBC Symphony Orchestra at theQueen's Hall, Koussevitzky made the world premiere recording of the Seventh Symphony at a public concert on 15 May 1933.[41][32] Koussevitzky dispatched the test pressings to Sibelius with a 6 June letter: "if they [the discs] do not please you, they will be destroyed"; the composer, however, was pleased, writing on 3 July: "I find it hard to express the joy I experienced when I listened to you dear Maestro ... Everything was so full of life and natural, and I cannot thank you sufficiently".[41] Although he never obtained the Eighth (Sibelius abandoned the project and destroyed the score),[42] Koussevitzky's advocacy remained undiminished: he commercially recorded the Second on 24 January 1935 and the Fifth on 29 December 1936,[43] as well as an additional Second on 29 November 1950, six months before his death.[44][l]

Complete cycles

[edit]
In 1953, the Swedish conductorSixten Ehrling and theStockholm Radio Orchestra completed the first recorded Sibelius cycle.
Paavo Berglund recorded the cycle four times. His earliest, with theBournemouth Symphony Orchestra in 1977, was the first by a Finn.

Although early advocates from the 1930s and 1940s had conducted many of Sibelius's symphonies from gramophone, none of these Sibelians recorded all seven.[19] In February 1952,Metronome (the United States distributor wasMercury) andDecca each began cycles: the former enlisted the Swedish conductorSixten Ehrling and theStockholm Radio Orchestra (now the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra), whereas the latter employed the English conductorAnthony Collins and the London Symphony Orchestra. For his cycle, Ehrling visited Sibelius atAinola on 10 June 1952, "loaded with practical questions concerning interpretation and the composer's intentions"; but Sibelius's demurred, refusing to "confine the interpretations of his music to any specific edicts; each artist must be allowed to work according to his capacity and imagination".[49] Ehrling outpaced Collins, completing his Sibelius cycle—history's first—in January 1953; Collins finished two years later in January 1955. These would be the only two cycles completed in Sibelius's lifetime.

Both the Ehrling and the Collins cycles were recorded in mono; the Japanese conductorAkeo Watanabe andJapan Philharmonic Orchestra were the first to stereo, completing their cycle forNippon Columbia in 1962 (the United States distributor wasEpic). A patriotic milestone arrived in June 1977 when the Finnish conductorPaavo Berglund became the first of Sibelius's countrymen to record the cycle (with theBournemouth Symphony Orchestra, EMI). Ten years later in July 1987, the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra became the first Finnish ensemble to complete the cycle (with Berglund, EMI).

The sortable table below contains all commercial recordings of the complete Sibelius cycle. To date, it has been recorded 51 times by 36 conductors (of whom 12 are or were Finns, Sibelius's countrymen) and 35 orchestras (three Finnish). In terms of superlatives, Berglund (1977, 1987, 1997, 1998) holds the record for the most cycles by a conductor. The record for an ensemble is jointly held by the London Symphony Orchestra (1955, 1994, 2008), the Japan Philharmonic Orchestra (1962, 1981, 2013), theFinnish Radio Symphony Orchestra (1989, 1993, 2014), theGothenburg Symphony Orchestra (1985, 2005, 2024), and the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra (1987, 2004, 2025), at three apiece. Finally, among record labels,Decca has produced a record six cycles (Collins, 1955; Maazel, 1968; Davis, 1976; Ashkenazy, 1984; Blomstedt, 1995; Mäkelä, 2021).

Complete cycles includingKullervo

[edit]

Additionally, the Sibelius cycle can, in its non-standard form, includeKullervo (Op. 7, 1892), a five-movement symphonic work forsoprano,baritone, male choir, and orchestra. This piece, which predates the First Symphony by seven years and in 1893 launched the young Sibelius as an important composer for orchestra, features sung text from Runos XXXV–VI of theKalevala, Finland'snational epic.Kullervo eschews obvious categorization, in part due to Sibelius's own ambivalence: at the premiere, program and score each listed the piece as a "symphonic poem"; yet, Sibelius nevertheless referred toKullervo as a symphony both while composing the piece and again in retirement when reflecting on his decades-long career.[100][101][102]

Today, many commentators prefer to viewKullervo as aprogrammaticchoral symphony, variously due to its deployment ofsonata form in the first movement, its thematic unity and recurring material, and its massive scale.[100][103][104][105] Such a perspective thus conceptualizesKullervo as Sibelius'sde facto "Symphony No. 0", thereby expanding hiscompleted contributions to the symphonic canon from seven to eight. Eleven of the Sibelius complete cycles listed above also includeKullervo. The sortable table below lists recording information for these performances.[v]

Incomplete cycles no longer in progress: 1952–present

[edit]
Despite being advocates for Sibelius's music,Sibelius MedalistsEugene Ormandy (left) andHerbert von Karajan (right) each never completed the cycle. Neither man ever recorded theThird; Ormandy, too, never recorded theSixth.

In addition to the 50 completed Sibelius cycles, there are a number of incomplete traversals available to the public. Of particular note is the collaboration between the Austrian conductorHerbert von Karajan and the Philharmonia for EMI, because it occurred during Sibelius's lifetime. In 1954, Walter Legge—who, in 1932, had been instrumental in the projected Kajanus–LSO cycle—sought to woo the octogenarian composer to London, either to personally conduct the cycle or, barring that, to supervise the production of one under Karajan (then under contract with Legge's EMI):[116]

As I believe I have already told you, Herbert von Karajan is, in my view, of all the leading conductors, the one with the greatest insight into your music. If you are completely happy with his performances of these three great works [Symphonies Nos. 4 and 5, recorded in 1952; andTapiola, 1953], I would be deeply grateful if you would write and tell me so, because if Herbert von Karajan's performances satisfy you, it is my intention to record all of your symphonies to be published in time for the celebration of your ninetieth birthday ...

— Walter Legge, in a September 1954 letter to Jean Sibelius[116]

Subsequently, Sibelius voiced his approval to Legge in person, remarking: "Karajan is the only one who really understands my music". In the end, Karajan recorded Symphonies Nos. 4–7 with the Philharmonia before Sibelius's death, all in mono; and, in 1960, he added to this set stereo recordings of Nos. 2 and 5.[117][118] Given that in 1955, Legge and the Philharmonia had recorded Symphonies Nos. 1–3 with the Polish conductorPaul Kletzki, this gives them an unofficial 'complete cycle' when combined with Karajan's work.[119] The sortable table below includes these and other incomplete Sibelius cycles for which a conductor recorded with the same orchestra at least three of the seven symphonies.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^TheFirst Symphony premiered on 26 April 1899 in Helsinki, with Sibelius conducting theHelsinki Philharmonic Society. It shared the program with thetone poemThe Wood Nymph, Op. 15 (1894–1895) and theSong of the Athenians, Op. 31/3 (1899), for boy's choir, male choir, and small orchestra.[3][4]
  2. ^TheSecond Symphony premiered on 8 March 1902 in Helsinki, with Sibelius conducting the Philharmonic Society. It shared the program with theOverture in A minor, JS 144 (1902) andImpromptu, Op. 19 (1902; revised 1910), for female choir and orchestra.[5][6]
  3. ^TheThird Symphony premiered on 25 September 1907 in Helsinki, with Sibelius conducting the Philharmonic Society. It shared the program with the tone poemPohjola's Daughter, Op. 49 (1906) andBelshazzar's Feast, Op. 51 (1907), aconcert suite Sibelius had excerpted from histheatre music, JS 48 (1906), toHjalmar Procopé's [sv] play.[7][8]
  4. ^TheFourth Symphony premiered on 3 April 1911 in Helsinki, with Sibelius conducting the Philharmonic Society. It shared the program with the tone poemsNightride and Sunrise, Op. 55 (1908) andThe Dryad, Op. 45/1 (1910), as well as two additional orchestral works:In memoriam, Op. 59 (1909; revised 1910), andCanzonetta, Op. 62a (1911).[9][10]
  5. ^The initial version of theFifth Symphony (then in four movements) premiered on 8 December 1915 in Helsinki, with Sibelius conducting theHelsinki Philharmonic Orchestra. It shared the program with the tone poemThe Oceanides, Op.  78 (1913–1914; revised 1914) and theTwo Serenades, Op. 69 (1912–1913) for violin and orchestra, withRichard Burgin as soloist.[11][12] Four years later, on 24 November 1919 in Helsinki, Sibelius premiered the definitive version of the Fifth, again with the Philharmonic Orchestra. Programmed alongside it wasSong of the Earth, Op. 93 (1919), acantata for mixed choir; and, theSix Humoresques, Op. 87/89 (1917–1918; No. 1 revised 1940), for violin and orchestra, with Paul Cherkassky as soloist.[13][14]
  6. ^TheSixth Symphony premiered on 19 February 1923 in Helsinki with Sibelius conducting the Philharmonic Orchestra. It shared the program with:Autrefois, Op. 96b (1920);Valse chevaleresque, Op. 96c (1922); theSuite champêtre forstrings, Op. 98b (1922); theSuite caractéristique, Op. 100 (1922) for strings and harp; and,La Chasse from theScènes historiques II, Op. 66 (1912).[15][16]
  7. ^TheSeventh Symphony—then titledFantasia sinfonica and not counted among the numbered symphonies–premiered on 24 March 1924 in Stockholm, with Sibelius conducting theConcert Society Orchestra. It shared the program with the First Symphony and theViolin Concerto inD minor, Op. 47 (1904; revised 1905), withJulius Ruthström [sv] as soloist.[17][18]
  8. ^Two notable Sibelians,Herbert von Karajan andEugene Ormandy, respectively, left three and two incomplete cycles.
  9. ^Beecham left behind an extensive recorded legacy as a Sibelian. In addition to the performances of the Fourth and Sixth mentioned above, he also recorded the Second twice and the Seventh three.
  10. ^According to the music critic and Sibelius "evangelist"Olin Downes,Koussevitzky was a late convert to the cause, having initially in 1924 dismissed Sibelius'soeuvre as "so dark". By the 1930s, however, Koussevitzky had become a "zealot" in service to Sibelius's music.[39]
  11. ^The archives of theBoston Symphony Orchestra contain the concert programs that correspond to this landmark cycle:Having inaugurated the cycle with the Boston premiere ofTapiola (4–5 November 1932), Koussevitzky had hoped—in vain, as it turned out—to conclude the cycle with the world premiere of theSymphony No. 8.
  12. ^In the 1960s,Rococo Records issued LPs of "off-air" recordings from the 1940s of Koussevitzky conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra in performances of the First, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh symphonies.[28][45][46]
  13. ^abcdeRefers to the timespan over which the conductor-orchestra pairing recorded the work(s); this may not be the same as the year(s) in which the recordings were first released to the general public.
  14. ^abcdeAll runtimes are official, as printed on CD or LPliner notes. For some recordings, the notes only provide runtimes for a symphony's constituentmovements; in these cases, the movement runtimes were added to obtain a total duration.
  15. ^abcThe liner notes to this release do not contain information on the venue(s) at which the symphonies were recorded.
  16. ^In 2015,Sony Classical released a remastered edition of theBernsteinNYPO cycle (88875026142), which superseded an earlier 2003 release (SM4K 87329). These releases, however, contain conflicting recording information; these discrepancies are as follows:
    • 2003 release: (No. 1) 3 March 1967 in Philharmonia Hall; (No. 2) 15 May 1966 in Philharmonia Hall; (No. 5) 27 March 1961 in Philharmonia Hall; (No. 7) 28 March 1960 & 26 October 1965 in Philharmonia Hall
    • 2015 release: (No. 1) 14 March 1967 in Philharmonia Hall; (No. 2) 16 May 1966 in Philharmonia Hall; (No. 5) 27 March 1961 in Manhattan Hall; (No. 7) 28 March 1960 in Philharmonia Hall
    The table above uses the 2015 liner notes.
  17. ^In the liner notes to the 2015 remaster, Sony Classical incorrectly promotes the Bernstein–NYPO cycle as "the first complete Sibelius symphony cycle in stereo ... there had only been two previous traversals of all seven symphonies on disc, both in mono, both dating from the previous decade".[53] In point of fact, Nippon Columbia's 1962 Watanabe–Japan PO cycle (which the Sony liner notes do not reference) was the first to stereo.
  18. ^TheVänskäLahti SO cycle also includes the world premiere recording of the original 1915 version of theFifth Symphony.BIS subsequently made the Vänskä–Lahti SO cycle part of its 13-volumeThe Sibelius Edition series (Vol. 12, 'Symphonies', BIS-CD-1933/35; released in 2011).
  19. ^abcdeThis orchestra records under its in-house label.
  20. ^TheStorgårdsBBC Phil cycle also includes the world premiere recording of three fragments purported to belong to Sibelius'sEighth Symphony, a piece that the composer destroyed in the late-1930s to early-1940s.
  21. ^TheLintuFinnish RSO cycle, a collaboration betweenArthaus Musik and theFinnish Broadcasting Company (YLE) released in 2015 in honor of the 150th anniversary of Sibelius's birth, comprisesaudiovisual recordings of live performances from 2012 to 2014. The cycle is available either onBlu-ray or DVD (but not CD). A documentary film—with commentary from the conductor—proceeds each symphony.
  22. ^Recordings ofKullervo byPaavo Järvi andSakari Oramo, respectively, are not included in the table above, because each is with an orchestra different from the one with which they recorded the Sibelius cycle.
  23. ^Since the 1970s,Deutsche Grammophon has packaged the Karajan–Berlin PO recordings of Symphonies Nos. 4–7 with recordings of Nos. 1–3 by the Finnish conductorOkko Kamu, who 1969 won the first Herbert von Karajan Conducting Competition; Kamu's First and Third are with theFinnish Radio Symphony Orchestra, while his Second is with the Berlin Phil. From 2012 to 2014, Kamu recorded a complete cycle with the Lahti Symphony Orchestra for BIS.
