Symphonie Fantastique

Album by Hector Berlioz & Rádió Magyar & Charles Munch

Symphonie fantastique is a programme symphony by French composer Hector Berlioz, composed in 1830. It exemplifies programme music and Romantic orchestral colour, employing an expanded orchestra, vivid orchestration and a recurring thematic idea across five movements to depict a dramatic narrative, and it occupies an early and prominent place in Berlioz's output and the development of nineteenth-century orchestral writing.
