Jean Sibelius?

Music Lane

It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Valse triste Opera 44 in particular is one of the most captivating movements I have heard since I began seriously listening to classical music over 20 years ago. This piece I own on Herbert Von Karagan's "Adagio" cd, Deutsche Grammaphone which has samplings of his various works over the years, purchased many years back and has made me wonder about the other offerings for "Valse triste" and the other works that accompany it, The Swan of Tuonela and the usual accompaniments.

I recently purchased another Herbert Von Karagan cd, EMI Import (remastered) to replace this aging disc, which should arrive later this week. I know the subject has been touched on over the years, but as I have begun to home in on my classical collection I rather like the idea of having multiple works of my favorites. Any suggestions, cd, sacd or downloads would be very helpful. Thanks.
