Description Sibelius composed his Fourth Symphony under the shadow of a life-threatening illness. The symphony is one of the most concentrated, elusive and original works ever written. With its heroic tone and jubilant mood, the Fifth is, by contrast, a simultaneous celebration of both Finnish nationalism and life itself.
