Symphony no. 2 / Ouvertures

Album by Robert Schumann & Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen & Paavo Järvi

Symphony No. 2 / Ouvertures is a collection of orchestral works by German composer Robert Schumann, composed and first performed in 1846. The music exemplifies Romantic orchestral writing through expansive forms, contrasting lyrical and energetic material and rich orchestration, and it represents a later stage in Schumann's orchestral development following his earlier symphonic experiments.
