Welcome to this site dedicated to Jean
Sibelius. You may wonder this site has been created! Firstly to mark the
50th anniversary of the death of the composer and secondly of much less
importance to mark the completion of the translation of his biography (more
than 1,000
pages), a work that has taken one and a half years, the appraisal of
countless references, visits to a multitude of specialized sites, libraries
and museums, as well as the pleasure of listening to all of Sibelius' music
and attending the concert given by
Esa-Pekka Salonen and the
Los Angeles
Philharmonic in Paris this autumn at the Salle Pleyel. A special
thanks to
http://www.dolmetsch.com and more specifically their
musical dictionary
http://www.dolmetsch.com/musictheorydefs.htm
and of course to all those who have contributed willingly or not as it is
impossible to list all their names. You may ask whose book was translated,
well for the moment you have to guess that...contact
