Symphony no. 3 / Capriccio Italien

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Софийски Фестивален Оркестър & Julian Kovatchev

Symphony No. 3 and Capriccio Italien are orchestral works by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1875 and 1880 respectively. Both pieces exemplify Tchaikovsky's late Romantic orchestral style: the Third Symphony exhibits expanded orchestration and structural experimentation within his symphonic writing, while Capriccio Italien uses Italianate folk-inspired themes and bright, colourful orchestral textures, reflecting different facets of his output in the later 19th century.
