Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 4

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Vladimir Fedoseyev & Большой симфонический оркестр имени П. И. Чайковского

Symphony No. 4 is the fourth symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1877–1878 and first performed in 1878. Rooted in the Romantic orchestral tradition, the symphony employs sweeping melodies, rich orchestration with prominent brass and woodwind writing and a recurring 'fate' motif that provides structural and dramatic coherence, representing a pivotal step in Tchaikovsky's development toward larger-scale symphonic ambition.
