With the Tree Suite (Op. 75) in mind, Sibelius wrote this corresponding Flower Suite (Op. 85). It forms a distinctive series of worthwhile pieces. Movements: No. 1. Bellis (Presto; 1917). The Daisy is a music-box-like virtuoso Blumenstück on the white keys. The style is that of a salon piece.; No. 2. Oeillet (Con moto; 1916). The Carnation is a remembrance of a ball. It was described by Erik Tawaststjerna as the most inspired and brilliant of Sibelius's miniatures in waltz rhythm. The A flat minor variation in the middle section darkens the atmosphere a little.; No. 3. Iris (Allegretto e deciso; 1916). This is a challenging, but rewarding work for the pianist. It is both serious and poetic in its fragility and determination.; No. 4. Aquileja (Allegretto; 1917). This piece (Aquilegia or Columbine) serves its purpose as a Biedermeier-style work in the manner of Edward MacDowell.; No. 5. Campanula (Andantino; 1917). The Bellflower rings out with its appoggiaturas and offers a bright, sparkling finale.
