Pathétique Symphony

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Boston Symphony Orchestra & Pierre Monteux

Symphony No. 6 in B minor, Op. 74, 'Pathétique' is the sixth and final symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, completed and premiered in 1893. The score exemplifies late-Romantic orchestration with sweeping melodies, stark emotional contrasts between melancholic slow passages and vigorous sections, and an unusually sombre finale that marks the culmination of Tchaikovsky's symphonic output.
