Sibelius

The movie on my favorite composer was a huge disappointment. I will not repeat the above in detail, but I lacked an image of the grandiosity of the Finnish nature and also the impact the country's history had on the composer.

The center seems to be the family but Sibelius is known as a great composer not a great father to be pictured.

Why was some of the music composed, what was his thoughts and struggles etc? I have read his biography and there is more to tell than he loved his wife all his life and was short of money.

Above, or shall I say beneath all, lay an absolute terrible quality of sound regarding the underlying music, which really is just... underlying, not the main issue.

This is maybe OK for a weekend afternoon on TV but hardly the definitive music film on Sibelius like 'Ameadeus' for Mozart.
