Symphonie Nr. 6 »Pathétique« / Fantasie-Ouvertüre »Romeo und Julia«

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Berliner Philharmoniker & Herbert von Karajan

This recording presents orchestral works by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1893 and 1869. The pieces draw on late-Romantic orchestration, sweeping melodies and stark emotional contrasts—one offering a sombre, introspective arc late in the composer's career while the other functions as a dramatic, overture-style depiction of narrative conflict, and together they occupy an important place in the late 19th-century Russian orchestral repertoire.
