Columbia MASTERWORKS* SIBELIUS Symphony No. 2, in D Major At last!—one of the great Sibelius Symphonies, recorded for universal delectation through the enterprise of Columbia. Sibelius as tone poet and musician not only stands alone among creative artists of the northern countries, but is acknowledged one of the greatest living composers. As interpreter of the beautiful folk-music idiom of Finland Sibelius has had no peers. The superb recording of this splen- didly individual work was conducted by Robert Kajanus, of Helsingfors, chosen by Sibelius, and accomplished at the instance of the Finnish Government, which chose Columbia for the task.

MOZART Quintet in G Minor, K. 516 An authority as conservative as Grove’s Dictionary says of this masterwork of genius, "The greatest (Quintet) is that in G Minor, in which a mood of spiritual anguish has by the magic of genius been crystallised into a work of immortal beauty”. It is acknowledged among the musically elect to have few rivals in the world’s chamber music, classic or modern. The impeccable and beguiling artistry of the Lener Quar- tet and their associate is to be remarked upon as ever. Columbia Masterworks Set No. 156 MOZART: Quintet in G Minor, K. 516. By Lener String Quartet and L. D’Oliviera— Viola. In 8 parts. $6.00 with album.
