Kajanus had founded the orchestra (as the Helsinki Philharmonic), conducting it for 50 years, and was noted for his interpretations of the music of Finland's greatest composer, Sibelius. </span></font></div> <div><font size="2"><span class="Black_Text"> </span></font></div> <div><font size="2"><span class="Black_Text">Schnnevoigt followed in this tradition,being noted for a more relaxed approach that Kajanus had evidenced, for example in the latter's recordings of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 5th Symphonies. Schneevoigt's personal connections with Sibelius make his recordings of the 4th and 6th Symphonies especially valuable. </span><br /> <br /> </font></div></td></tr></tbody></table><br /> </div> <br> <div align="center" style="border:none; position:relative; width:100%; left:0px; top:0px; visibility:visibile; overflow:inherit; z-index:12;"> <a href="sitemap.php?PHPSESSID=h4r74bnlqbbp5gjff6eaksqoe5" target="_self"><img border = "0" src="images/vi_returnpage.gif"></a> </div><br></div>
