Symphony N. in D major. Opus/Catalogue NumberOp. 1902-03-08 in Helsinki. Helsinki Philharmonic Society, Jean Sibelius (conductor).

As a symphonic composer, Sibelius must be up there as one of the greenest; he was the biggest recycler in the business. Its three opening notes more or less appear to form the entire backbone of what was to become one of his most popular works. Of course, you can’t question the genius with which it is done. The finale of this symphony particularly has the power to move the listener’s emotions. Pretty soon, the overtly Nordic sounds led the Symphony N. to be dubbed the ‘Symphony of independence’. Whether or not Sibelius actually intended this to happen has been open to debate, especially as sketches for it were begun while he was enjoying the beauty of the Italian countryside. Recommended Recording.

Symphony No. 7 in C major, Op. 105, was the final published symphony of the Finnish composer, Jean Sibelius. Completed in 1924, Symphony No. 7 is notable for being a one-movement symphony, in contrast to the standard symphonic formula of four movements. It has been described as "completely original in form, subtle in its handling of tempi, individual in its treatment of key and wholly organic in growth" and "Sibelius's most remarkable compositional achievement".
