Columbia MASTERWORKS* SIBELIUS Symphony No. 1, in E Minor This magnificent symphony is a fit companion for the same composer’s Second, issued by Columbia last month, the two releases constituting an event unique in recording history. Again the plaintive and beautiful folk'music idiom of the Finnish people finds expression in the magical harmonies and inspired figures of melody of which Sibelius is master. Increasing familiarity with these wonderful themes has steadily increased the number of Sibelius devotees during the thirty'two years since this symphony was first performed.

TSCHAIkOWSKY Romeo and Juliet—Fantasy Overture for Orchestra Tschaikowsky’s tonal conception of the world’s greatest love story no longer excites the antagonism which greeted its first hearing—on the contrary it is now regarded as one of music’s most glowing fragments of tone'poesy. This new recording by Mengelberg and his famous orchestra has attracted wide attention for the astound' ingly faithful reproduction of the timpani passages which have been so frequently the despair of the recording engineer.
