Johann Sibelius was a Finnish composer who played a pivotal role in shaping Finland's national identity through his music amidst the surge of nationalism in the early 20th century. Renowned for blending innovative harmonies, rich orchestrations, and emotional depth, his compositions, such as the symphonic poem "Finlandia" and "Valse Triste," as well as his Violin Concerto and seven symphonies, have cemented his legacy. His works not only defined Finnish classical music but also significantly influenced the evolution of symphonic music during the Romantic era.
