Sibelius and the Tone Poems
Saturday, Nov. 23, 2013 1–4pm.
The seminar will be hosted by Toronto writer, broadcaster, lecturer and musical tour guide, Rick Phillips. Through the use of many recordings, Rick will explore the wonderful world of the Sibelius tone poems.
Sibelius was a master of the tone poem and wrote many that are linked to Finnish legend and lore. Finlandia is the most famous. He once said, “I am above all a tone painter and poet.”
