About

Finnish bass Kim Borg (1919-2000) was celebrated in opera roles stretching from Mozart’s Don Giovanni and Beethoven’s Don Pizarro to Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov and Strauss’s Baron Ochs at venues including the Met, Glyndebourne and Salzburg.

But he was also a sensitive recitalist, renowned for the range and beauty of his voice and for his linguistic gifts. Here he presents lesser-known gems by his great compatriot: a varied selection of Sibelius’ most beautiful songs.
The Nordic music expert Robert Layton has called the original mono LP “one of the pinnacles of the Sibelius song discography”.

As a bonus, there are three attractive songs by Sibelius’s compatriot Kilpinen - one now released for the first time ever – and Borg’s stereo remakes of two Sibelius items, now making their first CD appearance.
1960 (17, 19-21)/2007 (18)
