Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & London Symphony Orchestra & Igor Markevitch

Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 64 is a symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, completed and premiered in 1888. The four-movement Romantic work features lush orchestration, broad sweeping melodies and a recurrent cyclical motif that unifies the movements, marking it as a key example of Tchaikovsky's mature symphonic voice and a significant contribution to late 19th-century Russian orchestral music.
