Osmo Vänskä conductor*The Suite for violin and string orchestra is often listed incorrectly as Op. 117. Sibelius did indeed provisionally assign
the suite this opus number, but he later changed his mind: in his final opus lists from 1951–52 no work is listed
as Op. 117. Moreover, at various times he allocated the same number to the Academic March, Andante festivo and
a choral piece named Karjalan osa.
