To the great Maestro Jorma Panula I send, on behalf of the U.K. Sibelius Society, many happy returns for your birthday today.
A year younger than Jean Sibelius achieved so we wish you many more birthdays.
To the man who single handedly allowed Finnish conductors to conquer the world by producing so many highly talented maestros we salute you. Finland owes you a huge debt and can take pride in your stunning achievements.
Enjoy today and many of us will toast your birthday with great celebration. I will play your recording of Kullervo.
