Tchaikovsky 4

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Arctic Philharmonic Orchestra & Christian Lindberg

Symphony No. 4 in F minor, Op. 36 is the fourth symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, completed in 1878. The work fuses late-Romantic orchestration with a prominent 'fate' motif, moving between turbulent brass-led climaxes and sweeping, lyrical string writing, and it represents a pivotal development in Tchaikovsky's approach to large-scale structure and expressive narrative following the personal crises of the late 1870s.
