Hmmm, not sure where that comes from, but I have a faint rememberance the poem was supposed to be recited aloud by two different persons, and I think they had to be sitting or standing on a bench as well. I never owned a bench, never found another person willing to recite it with me, and I assumed it was all the license I needed to read it in petto.

Ow. That seems hopeless. I'm not even sure Sibelius composed anything but symphonic or chamber music, so maybe my best chance to develop a Finnish accent would be to trade my current cell phone for a Nokia.
