Finlandia gets a lot of attention; it's great, but it's too bad that it distracts people away from his other works.

His symphonies (my favorites are 5 and 7), tone poems (favorites are pohjola's daughter, en saga), karelia suite (very colorful), and of course his violin concerto -- they're all great.
