Tone Poem, 'En Saga' ('A Legend')...Sibelius

Sibelius's music expresses the ruggedness of his native Finland and its people, as all who listen to his Finlandia (to be given later this evening) may gather.
He has received high honour in his own country, for a year or so ago. on his sixtieth birthday, the President of Finland personally bestowed on him a high decoration, and Parliament doubled the pension of 50.000 marks a year, which he has received for the last eleven years. A national subscription of 270,000 marks was also raised in his honour.
In En Saga we are to imagine we are listening to an old tale told by a bard-a tale of heroic doings and strange perils, of pathos, love, and mystery, of tragedy and triumph.
