Valse triste, aus der Musik zu Arvid Järnefelts Drama, Kuolema. Op. 44. Für Pianoforte und Violine von Friedrich Hermann

Jean Sibelius was a Finnish composer of the late Romantic and early modern periods. He is widely regarded as his country's greatest composer, and his music is often credited with having helped Finland develop a stronger national identity when the country was struggling from several attempts at Russification in the late 19th century.
