Symphonies Nos. 4 & 6 «Pastoral»

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century & Frans Brüggen

Symphonies Nos. 4 & 6 «Pastoral» are orchestral works by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1806 and 1808 respectively. Rooted in the Classical tradition with emergent Romantic expressiveness, the Fourth is concise and lyrical while the Sixth evokes rural scenes and programme-like elements, together illustrating Beethoven's stylistic transition and his expanding approach to form and orchestral colour.
