Quote from: Skogwald on July 11, 2025, 09:27:40 AMWhat are some REALLY good sounding Sibelius recordings? I would like to hear these perfet symphonies in perfect sound.

I might answer my own question here. Both Vänskä cycles sound fantastic, but I've been really loving how Segerstam/Helsinki sounds. Perfectly natural, clear but also contrasty!

Four-page booklet essay covering the conductor and, briefly, the music. Then - complete sung texts!

Hmm. Fractionally tempting for the orchestral songs in particular, which I seem to remember are considered exceptionally good versions. Although they're probably all still available separately.
Nobody has to apologise for using their brain.
