Symphonie fantastique / Ouverture »Le Corsaire«

Album by Hector Berlioz & Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks & Rafael Kubelík

This is an orchestral album by French composer Hector Berlioz, with its principal work composed in 1830 and the accompanying overture dating from the 1840s. The music exemplifies Romantic-era programme symphonic writing, employing expanded orchestral forces, dramatic contrasts and inventive orchestration, and it represents a key example of Berlioz's approach to narrative-driven large-scale orchestral form.
