This opus dates from 1929 is Sibelius's last work for piano. The most original aspect of this collection is its ascetic, even bare quality, although it also contains some highly individual tonal shifts and colourings. The mysterious Metsälaulu (Song in the Forest) is particularly capturing. (1. Landscape / Maisema - 2 Winter Scene / Talvikuva - 3. Forest Lake / Metsälampi - 4. Song in the Forest / Metsälaulu - 5. Spring Vision / Kevätnäky). This new edition is based on the complete critical edition “Jean Sibelius Works” (JSW) and contains a new foreword and an early version of the Song of the Forest.
