‘A mighty hero, in his veins the blood of ages … but alas, he had his failings.’ Sibelius’ retelling of the Lemminkäinen myth is unveiled by the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

According to Finnish mythology, Lemminkaïnen is a hero with a dark side: loving, hunting and challenging death itself.

Sibelius retold his exploits in music that’s as colourful as a film score and as gripping as any fantasy epic – with the eerie Swan of Tuonela at its shadowy heart.

The heroine at the centre of Tania León’s Stride, too, is someone ‘who did not take “no” for an answer’.

That makes it a wonderfully appropriate upbeat to the headlong energy of Mendelssohn’s First Piano Concerto, played by the dazzling Beatrice Rana.
