A Musical Journey – Finland: A Musical Tour of Helsinki and the Finnish Landscape

Scenes of Finland; its capital Helsinki and its countryside; are intercut with the work of the painter Akseli Gallen-Kallela; who; like his contemporary Jean Sibelius; captured the spirit of his country and its legends in his work. Jean Sibelius is the greatest of all Finnish composers and it is his music that accompanies scenes from his native Finland.
