Kuolema... Kuolema...
The whispering words literally crawled among the dead trunks of the solemn woods. Tangled and twisted with the mist and haze, just at the outskirts of Rovaniemi far up North, she emerges like a fiercing wolf scorching wind and fire with her shiny life-taker sword.
I can hear you coming for me.
Is it the end or just the beginning? Nevertheless, I smile and wait.
Coming from you it can only be good.

This has a complicated history, and I don’t think what we have at the moment quite captures the sequence of events. As far as I can work out, the following is the chronology (I’ve taken this mainly from [1]):
We currently suggest that he published Valse triste, Scene with Cranes, Canzonetta and Valse romantique as a unified suite. But he never did that. It is sometimes recorded or performed as a suite - because it represents the totality of what remains of the music for Kuolema - but that’s not what Sibelius intended. It is a not unreasonable rewriting of history, but a rewriting of history nonetheless. We know nothing of the original version of Valse triste, the original version of Canzonetta, or numbers 2, 5 and 6 of the original music. -- JackofOz ( talk) 02:40, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
