Symphonies Nos. 4, 5 & 6 "Pathétique"

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & State Academic Symphony Orchestra of the Russian Federation & Evgeny Fyodorovich Svetlanov

Symphonies Nos. 4, 5 & 6 "Pathétique" is a collection of symphonies by Piotr Ilitch Tchaïkovski, composed between 1877 and 1893. The works exemplify his late-Romantic orchestral style, characterised by sweeping melodies, vivid orchestration and intense emotional contrasts, and together they chart his development of symphonic architecture and expressive language late in his career.
First released: 1996
