RE: Jean Sibelius?

OK, I guess I'll go there - no one has mentioned the most popular piece by Sibelius, which is his short overture entitled Finlandia. The symphonies are well worth checking out if you want longer works. Look for the San Francisco Symphony recordings on Decca with Blomstedt conducting. Also, his violin concerto is one of my favorites. There are many recordings out there.
