WHY IS FINLANDIA SO FAMOUS?

Sibelius’ Finlandia is one of the most powerful orchestral works ever written.

Originally composed as a symbol of hope and national identity, the music builds from dark, dramatic opening chords to a soaring, unforgettable melody.

Hear it performed live by the Orange Symphony Orchestra on 29 March.
