In this short video, Matthew King explores the music of Sibelius and his deep creative affinity with nature, and especially with swans. Two works are discussed: the early tone poem 'The Swan of Tuonela' (1893) and the 5th Symphony (1915) whose famous finale theme was inspired by a skein of 16 swans which flew over the composer as he was sketching the symphony.
'In Seven Days' by Thomas Adès is mentioned in the video. You can see a score-following video here: https://youtu.be/ceLy-dV89B0?si=4MyNaS2ra4hK92Ze and you can hear the music as originally intended with a video by Tal Rosner: https://youtu.be/n2B4KOGyTTk?si=M6WLlM9yskuCWInY
