A Composer's Ties to Nazi Germany Come Under New Scrutiny

Excerpt:

He allows that Jackson is doing a service to the history of Finnish
cultural, scientific, and political relations with German colleagues during
the Third Reich. But while Jackson insists that his evidence against
Sibelius is more than circumstantial, Murtomäki is not so sure: "So,
Sibelius was selfish and flattered by his fame in Germany and wanted the
money. I am sorry for that. But it does not make him a Nazi or a great
friend of any SS person or acts made by them. History is not that easy."
