Album by Hector Berlioz & Bremer Philharmoniker & Marko Letonja

Le Carnaval Romain – Ouverture caractéristique, op. 9, and Symphonie fantastique, op. 14, are orchestral works by French composer Hector Berlioz, composed in 1844 and 1830 respectively. These pieces exemplify Berlioz's innovative orchestration and programmatic storytelling, with the overture drawing from his opera Benvenuto Cellini and the symphony depicting a vivid narrative of an artist's unrequited love and descent into madness.
