When Sibelius wrote Tapiola he was inspired by Finnish tales of the forest spirit, Tapio. Sibelius wrote that Tapiola is about 鈥榙usky forests鈥� and 鈥榓ncient, mysterious, brooding savage dreams鈥� where 鈥榳ood-sprites in the gloom weave magic secrets.鈥� John Foulds takes us closer to home with a picture of England in April, and there鈥檚 Russian passion in Rachmaninov鈥檚 beautiful Piano Concerto No. 4.
