Santtu-Matias Rouvali & GSO - Sibelius: Symphonies Nos. 3 & 5 Pohjola's Daughter - The Critic

... there’s a new burst of steam from the sauna…I liked Mäkelä’s set a lot on release, although with reservations about some tempo relations, which felt a little forced and artificial. Rouvali, on this evidence, is the one to follow….The Swedes think they own Sibelius at least as much as the Finns. This orchestra absolutely does.
