Symphony fantastique

Album by Hector Berlioz & The European Philharmonic Orchestra

Symphonie fantastique is a programme symphony by French composer Hector Berlioz, composed and first performed in 1830. The five-movement work uses expanded orchestration, recurring thematic transformation (the idée fixe) and a programme-driven musical narrative to depict a dramatic Romantic storyline, and it represents a pivotal work in Berlioz's career and in the evolution of 19th-century orchestral music.
