Symphonie Fantastique

Album by Hector Berlioz

Symphonie fantastique is a programme symphony by French composer Hector Berlioz, composed and first performed in 1830. The work employs vivid orchestration, a recurring idée fixe as a unifying thematic element, and dramatic programme-driven scenes that blend Romantic-era melodic expressiveness with inventive orchestral colour, and it occupies a significant place in Berlioz's output and the wider development of programmatic orchestral music.
