Onko kenenkään mielestä vähän erikoista, että presidentti Sauli Niinistö esiintyy A-studio? Olisin ollut kiinnostunut kuulemaan Alexander Stubb mielipiteitä näistä kysymyksistä.

Carl Nielsen, Sinfonia Semplice, 4th movement. Royal Stockholm Philharmonic cond. by Yours Truly. One of my favourite symphony movements.

'– Olen joskus todennut, että Suomella ei ole mitään tarvetta avata ydinase­keskustelua, Niinistö sanoi painokkaasti.

Niinistön kanta eroaa kokoomuksen presidenttiehdokkaan Alexander Stubbin kannasta ydinaseisiin.'

This is new! BBC Symphony Orchestra & Chorus have today rehearsed for the first time ever Oskar Merikanto's Kesäillan valssi (Summer Evening Waltz). We are also touring all 7 symphonies by #Sibelius at @migrosclassics in Geneva, Zurich and Bern.

Happy birthday Jean Sibelius ! Celebrating today at Barbican Centre and BBC Radio 3 with the stunning BBC Symphony Orchestra & Chorus : Symphonies 6 and 7, performed ATTACCA without interruption.

This was an exceptional Eroica in the hall. The thing in itself. Oramo works the strings so hard (2nd vlns!) for maximum articulation, and the solo winds have such strong personalities.

Thank you fantastic BBC Symphony Orchestra & Chorus and sublime Jennifer Johnston ! bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

A stunning performance of Michael Tippett’s A Child Of Our Time by the orchestra and choirs of the Sibelius Academy. Still sadly relevant today, with oppression and persecution and the chorus of the self-righteous. Heart-breaking that so many children of our own time still suffer

Sir Michael Tippett's masterpiece Child of Our Time, performed by the Sibelius Academy Uniarts Helsinki forces and expertly prepared and conducted by Nils Schweckendiek in Musiikkitalo was deeply moving and more relevant today than ever since it was written.
