Andrew Barnett is founder and chairman of the UK Sibelius Society. He is project advisor to BIS Records' Complete Sibelius Edition and has advised and written extensively for the International Sibelius Festival in Lahti.
"Andrew Barnett is unfailingly perceptive and has the ability to
engage the interest of both the less informed and the more expert
reader. Few would be better qualified to undertake a new book on
the Finnish master."--Robert Layton, author of "Sibelius" (Master
Musicians Series)
--Robert Layton
"Barnett neatly dispels other myths, explaining how from around
1930 to his death, Sibelius completed briefer works while striving,
unsuccessfully, to complete his Eighth Symphony. . . . A warmly
humanizing, informed biography."--;i>The Newark Star-Ledger"
