Sibelius, Jean: Tone Poems.(Tafelmusik, from parts I and II)(Sound Recording Review)
Sibelius, Jean: Tone Poems. The Scottish National Orchestra, conducted by Sir Alexander Gibson. Recorded in 1977, at City Hall, Glasgow. Recompiled in 1985, and digitally remastered and re-released in 2004. Engineer: Brian Couzens. 110 minutes (two-disc set). Chandos 241-19.

The only beef I have is an occasional stridency during the loudest parts. With DSP ambiance emendations applied, the sense of spaciousness and live-music envelopment is quite good. A good buy, considering the two-for one price.

Tafelmusik was published as a collection of earlier-composed pieces in 1733, after the composer had ...
