4 Symphonien

Album by Robert Schumann & Berliner Philharmoniker & Herbert von Karajan

4 Symphonien is a cycle of four symphonies by Robert Schumann, composed between 1841 and 1851. The works span early-Romantic orchestral idioms, combining lyrical melodies, rich harmonic language and contrasting orchestral colours, and they represent a key period in Schumann's career as he expanded from piano and song into large-scale symphonic writing.
