Finland: My Kinda Strangeness to Finnish Composer - Jean Sibelius

Further North West about 2 km from Rock Church
This is it the Sibelius Park with giant organ pipes as the iconic landmark
and just a stone throw away from the sea.
Apparently the park is named in the memory of
the famous Finnish composer and violinist - Jean Sibelius.

Sorry for my ignorance
I didn't know who he was
I was even confused if he was the original composer of Seventh Symphony (1924)
which in coincidence has the same name as Beethoven's Symphony No. 7。 by Beethoven.
OK at least now I know both are two different symphonies with different compositions.

When I now writing about Sibelius Monument,
start to read more about the great musician and the sculpture,
I only came to realize that the 600 hollow vertical tubes can actually sing.
These pipes will start to "sing" when the wind blew across them at certain speed and angle.
How genius the Finnish artist is!

Reminiscing what we had done at the monument,
we put our heads into the pipes,
what we heard only our rhythm of laughter.
How silly we were!
