The composition process of the Fourth Symphony was not an easy one for Sibelius and he was only just able to finish the work in time for the premiere in spring 1911: "My new symphony is a total protest against present-day compositions. Nothing - absolutely nothing of the circus [in it]." This extraordinary work was at first found difficult to understand although its technical brilliance was recognized. The appreciation of the Fourth has, however, grown in the course of years. Now, the work is also available as a study score, containing the engraving of the complete edition Jean Sibelius Works.
