Cleanup tag removal - debatable. Wikification tag added because this isn't a Wikipedia article - compare existing articles on works. (E.g. - String Quartet No. 16 (Beethoven), Symphony No. 5 (Mahler). There's a Wikipedia:Wikiproject Music which I believe is hashing out how to write these things in a standard manner?... (Also just check the links from the Wikification tag itself etc.) Started doing some of the Wikification but need to catch a bus.

Note that where evidence is claimed it should be provided in some way; works mentioned might (... convenient for the user, even if the article doesn't exist yet they should at some point if they're interesting and well-enough known pieces) be linked (e.g. [[Symphony No. 5 (Sibelius)|fifth]], the braces fit in with nowiki tags here so that it doesn't become a link on this page...

And in my opinion but importantly - you haven't described what happens in the piece (e.g. the scalar opening starting on an A, the scherzo-like part towards the middle, the twice-occurring climax, the closing section) - in my opinion again such a description should about balance (in the articles I've written - e.g. Cello Sonata No. 1 (Brahms) it's been much longer than, which may be very bad; don't follow my example :( ) - should about balance the history section, and start a new section (with ==Form== or something like that, the == or === you need but Form you can change.)

There's another problem with this article. A lot of it is taken verbatim from an Inkpot article about Sibelius. Robert Happelberg 21:01, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Hrm. If this is not still true (will compare the two later) - then since this article is so close to what I think of as a very good music description article indeed!... (except for the fact that the images can only be used once, I think, not copied by students or Wikiclone sites, by the copyright conditions) - I'm considering whether it could be nominated as a featured article?... It's been edited a lot since then, it's true. Schissel | Sound the Note! 17:12, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

I need to add a lot more description/sound clips -- right now only the first part of the symphony is covered. Need to find time for this -- or if anyone else is interested, please go ahead Grover cleveland 19:04, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
