Symphony in C for Orchestra

Album by Igor Fyodorovitch Stravinsky & Herbert von Karajan & Berliner Philharmoniker

Symphony in C is a symphony for orchestra by Igor Stravinsky, composed between 1938 and 1940 and first performed in 1940. Stylistically neoclassical, the four-movement work features transparent orchestration, formal clarity, contrapuntal textures and rhythmic incisiveness, exemplifying Stravinsky's engagement with traditional symphonic models during his neoclassical period.
First released: 1969
