Ainola, the house that Jean Sibelius built in 1904 and lived in until his death in 1957, has become legendary among lovers of Nordic music. The house, now a museum, receives tens of thousands of visitors every summer – many from abroad. It has remained largely unchanged since Sibelius and his family lived in it, and among the museum’s most treasured objects is the Steinway grand piano presented to Sibelius on his 50th birthday. It is on this instrument that pianist and recognized Sibelius authority Folke Gräsbeck has recorded this tribute to the composer on his 150th anniversary.
