Notes, references, and sources [ edit ]

Notes [ edit ]

  1. ^ Because Sibelius's Op. 37 songs are sung in Swedish, this article gives preference to each song's native title, rather than the English translation.
  2. ^ All but a few of Sibelius's songs are settings of Swedish-language poems (quantitatively, his favorite poets were Ernst Josephson , Johan Ludvig Runeberg , Viktor Rydberg , and Karl August Tavaststjerna  [ fi ] ) [1] and are with piano accompaniment. While many are of high quality, they largely have been neglected outside the Nordic realm , due to the limited coverage (in terms of number of speakers) of Swedish (relative to, for example, German or French). [2]
  3. ^ A preliminary/alternative version of " Soluppgang " ("Sunrise") is extant; its catalogue designation is JS  87.
