Symphonie No. 6 "Pastorale" / Overtüren "Coriolan & König Stephan"

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Wiener Philharmoniker & Leonard Bernstein

This collection of orchestral works by Ludwig van Beethoven was composed and first performed in the early 19th century, with composition dates ranging roughly from 1807 to 1811. It juxtaposes a programme-oriented symphonic movement that evokes rural scenes through lyrical melodies, folk-like rhythms and vivid orchestral colour with compact dramatic overtures that employ striking motifs and clear formal drive, reflecting Beethoven's move from classical models toward a more expressive, early Romantic orchestral language.
