Pietari InkinenAbout
For his Scenes Historiques II, Sibelius composed new music. In the opening 'The Chase', horns are heard through the mist, followed by the wild chase, with its impelling rhythms.
The incidental music for Adolf Paul’s play King Christian II, set in the 16th century, deals with the Kings’s love of a commoner, her murder by a jealous rival and the King’s bloodthirsty revenge. It includes a strongly-felt love scene, 'Nocturne', with many elements characteristic of the composer’s future musical language.
