Sakari Oramo Essentials
Apple Music Classical
This Finnish conductor has an uncommonly broad command of the symphonic repertoire. Oramo brings an edge to the music of Elgar and Grieg, while also making spiky contemporary pieces flow as though they're familiar classics. A notable proponent of compatriot composers like Kaija Saariaho and Magnus Lindberg, Oramo is one of the musicians who has been primarily responsible for spreading modern Finnish music to the rest of the classical music world. Get to know his deft mastery of the orchestra by hearing Oramo-led renditions of works by Prokofiev, Sibelius and other luminaries.
