The Complete Edition Jean Sibelius Works has made a big step forward with this volume: the publication of all piano works which the composer personally supplied with opus numbers, thus bequeathing them to posterity in an authorized form. The piano pieces with opus numbers ranging between 85 and 114 were written partly during World War I and, more importantly, during the first post-war years up to 1924. This is when for various reasons, and not only for lack of funds Sibelius once again applied himself intensively to the composition of piano pieces. The more than 40 works eloquently refute the claim that the composer had little esteem for the piano. With the little collection of op. 114, Sibelius leads us into the memorable year 1929, when he ended his compositional activity once and for all.

Little is known about the actual composition process of Lemminkainen, and the performance and publication history is rather complex, resulting in a first complete printing of all four movements en suite through the complete edition of Jean Sibelius Works only in 2013.In summer 1894 Sibelius went to Central Europe, carrying among others a plan for an opera freely based on the Kalevala in his mind. But during this trip he reassessed his composing: I think I have found my old self again, musically speaking. I think I really am a tone painter and a poet. As a result he abandoned his opera plans, but musical parts may have found their way into the Lemminkainen pieces which he started composing during that time. Definitely the overture had, it is now known and loved as The Swan of Tuonela.Lemminkainen became popular from the beginning and has attained a fixed position in the concert repertoire.On Lemminkainen and the Maidens on the Island a critic opined: We do not hesitate to award this tone painting of Lemminkainen's erotic emotional world the first prize among all the young composer's works. Sibelius himself said about Lemminkainen in Tuonela: The cradle song at the end of the work is maternal love, which rakes the pieces of Lemminkainen together from the River Tuonela. and commented on Lemminkainen's Return: I would like to see more pride in us Finns. Why should we be ashamed? This is the underlying thought in Lemminkainen's Return. Lemminkainen is just as good as the noblest of earls. He is an aristocrat, without question an aristocrat!.

There is still much to discover in Sibelius oeuvre: with the first volume of the choral works, the Complete Edition is now opening up a new chapter. The Finnish composers many little a cappella choral pieces are still hardly known beyond the borders of Finland and Sweden. They are often very simple pieces that consciously seek the proximity of the folk song. Thanks to the complete CD recording of Sibelius works, we are able to listen to everything he wrote, and the white spots still found on the Sibelius map have been livened up with little splashes of color. Its time to discover these Northern Lights!
