Symphony no. 6 “Pathétique”

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & MusicAeterna & Teodor Currentzis

Symphony No. 6 in B minor, Op. 74, "Pathétique" is the final completed symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed and premiered in 1893. Part of the late Romantic repertoire, it combines sweeping melodic writing, rich orchestration and stark emotional contrasts, and represents the composer's final symphonic statement with an unorthodox formal plan that emphasises a slow, elegiac concluding movement rather than a conventional upbeat finale.
