The French musicologist Marc Vignal published his vast
biography of Jean Sibelius in 2005. This year 2007 is
the fiftieth anniversary of the composer's death and a number of
events will be held especially in Finland to commemorate
the life and works of this great symphonist.
The biography
has been translated into English by myself, it
represents one of the vastest works on the life and
times of Jean Sibelius. The book includes many musical
analysis of his most famous works, which will be of
great interest to music lovers around the world.
The book of a total of almost 1,200 pages will hopefully be
published in September of this year.
