Symphonies no. 5 & no. 7

Album by Alexander Konstantinovich Glazunov & Tadaaki Otaka & BBC National Orchestra of Wales

Symphonies No. 5 and No. 7 are orchestral works by Russian composer Alexander Glazunov, composed in 1895 and 1902 respectively. They exemplify the late-Romantic Russian symphonic style with rich orchestration and expansive thematic development, marking a stage in Glazunov's career between his earlier lyricism and a more mature symphonic approach.
