Canadian Friends of Finland Education Foundation presents

Saturday, November 20, 2010 1-4 pm

The seminar will be hosted by Rick Phillips, the former host and producer of CBC radio's Sound Advice, the weekly guide to Classical music and recordings. Through the use of many recordings, Rick will explore the wonderful world of the Sibelius tone poems.

Sibelius was a master of the tone poem and wrote many that are linked to Finnish legend and lore. Finlandia is the most famous. He once said, "I am above all a tone painter and poet".

Please take this opportunity to add to your musical knowledge and enhance your enjoyment of great music by one of the world's great composers.
