Sibelius’ fifth symphony is famously associated with visions of nature and the Finnish landscapes the composer was so attached to. Grieg wrote his only piano concerto in a bold attempt to reconcile nordic folk themes with the fantasy-inspired formal architecture of Schumann. Discover these two masterpieces at the hands of french star-pianist Cedric Tiberghien and the Fidelio Orchestra conducted by their founder Raffaello Morales.
