Manfred Symphony
Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest & Riccardo Chailly
Manfred Symphony is a programme symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, written in 1885. The work is a large-scale late-Romantic orchestral piece that employs dark, dramatic themes, expanded harmonic language and vivid orchestration to follow a literary programme, and it stands apart in Tchaikovsky's output as a more explicitly narrative and exploratory symphonic statement.
