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

Nordic for me....

Nordic for me is many things. In terms of personality it can be quite introverted and self-reliant. But there is a sentimental side to it as well.

It's quite unassuming - these are not people who brag about things. The Janteloven (Jantelagen in Sweden) is all about humility and restraint - not presuming to be better than you are. So the ostentatiousness of a Bernstein is not very Nordic, for instance. That would be a bit like the Norwegian comedy series Lilyhammer

There is a basic honesty in the people - genuineness is rated highly and is a top quality on dating sites.

Life is seasonal - there is great joy in Summer and people swim, sail and walk a lot in the countryside. Winter is a different joy - snow, skiing and the beauty of a cold, crisp sunny day.

So in terms of Sibelius I like it as above - modest, measured, not showy or exaggerated, chilling at times, but also with moods of great sunny joy in the beauty of nature. Sibelius has all this. It's in the music itself, and exaggeration and "bigging it up" just kills it. I don't want to hear any added passion, I want to hear the music itself.
