Eduard Tubin was born June 18, 1905 in the town of Estonia Toril, then administered by the Russian Governor of Riga Coming from a family of amateur musicians, soon showed his talent, mastering the technique of piano and violin. Shortly after the proclamation of independence of Estonia, he began his musical studies at Tartu, developing an interest in composition and conducting, in thirties also began as performances abroad, where he was able to make friends with Zoltán Kodály, who encouraged him to cultivate his interest in the music of popular origin. When the Soviet Union invaded Estonia in 1944, Tubin fled to Stockholm, where he settled and lived for the rest of his life, until his death in 1982.
The little-known internationally - mostly posthumously - who has managed to carve out Tubin is mainly the work of dffusione made earlier by his compatriot Neeme Järvi and now the latter's two sons, Paavo and Kristjan, aware of the amount of Tubin as a composer and symphony. In his ten symphonies (his eleventh we have only the first movement), Tubin predilisse structure in three movements (only have four fourth and eighth, the tenth one) and the tonal language, even if developed in a modern and "contaminated" by echoes popular. The instrumental ensemble is particulate matter, but is often exploited to the fullest extent dynamics, in particular, fans of the brass and percussion will find magnificent points of interest. Just as in the pages of Tubin will not be difficult to find passages of lyrical beauty, often entrusted to the song of the violin soloist, his first love in music. The symphony plays is the fifth proposal, written in 1946, though the songwriting is more of Tubin often compared to that of Sibelius, in this symphony, the rhythmic drive and solutions "spectacular" (two sets of timpani placed at the extremes of orchestral) refer to experiences nielseniane.
The Fifth Symphony in B minor is divided into three movements:
1. Allegro
2. Andante
3. Allegro
