Symphony no. 6 in B minor “Pathétique”

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Orchester der Wiener Staatsoper & Vladimir Golschmann

Symphony No. 6 in B minor 'Pathétique' is the sixth symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed and premiered in 1893. It exemplifies late-Romantic orchestral writing with expansive lyricism, stark dynamic and tempo contrasts and a sombre, march-like final movement, and it represents the composer's final symphonic statement with noted influence on subsequent Russian and European symphonic repertoire.
