🎂 Happy birthday to Jean Sibelius, Finnish composer and famous perfectionist! He was known to revise pieces for years, and he even set fire to entire drafts of his Eighth Symphony because he felt they didn’t measure up.

Which Sibelius work would you call “perfect”?

Meet Jupiter, KBACH’s November Cat! 😸

His daytime acrobatics feel straight out of Camille Saint-Saëns' The Carnival of the Animals, his evening hospitality carries the elegance of a Strauss waltz and in his downtime "The Goldfinch" might as well be his personal anthem (he takes his weekend bird-watching very seriously).

One thing never changes: he’s always tuned in to KBACH. So tell us — which composer do you think he curls up with?
