Symphonie fantastique

Album by Hector Berlioz & Sergiu Celibidache & Münchner Philharmoniker

Symphonie fantastique is a programme symphony by French composer Hector Berlioz, composed and first performed in 1830. It exemplifies early Romantic programme music through expansive orchestration, novel instrumental colours and the use of a recurring thematic idée fixe to unite its movements, marking a pivotal point in Berlioz's career and in the development of nineteenth-century orchestral technique.
