As a die-hard Sibelian, I could list any of the master's 7 symphonies as a personal favorite piece of music.

However, if I were asked to pick only one, it would be the 2nd. Okay, so this is Sibelius's most universally popular symphony, but I do feel ashamed to admit it's my favorite.

Anyone else?
