Symphonies Nos. 3 & 4
Album by Robert Schumann & Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra & Jerzy Semkow
Symphonies Nos. 3 & 4 are orchestral works by German composer Robert Schumann, composed in 1850 and 1841 respectively. Both exemplify Schumann's Romantic orchestral style — the Third adopts a broad, processional character while the Fourth demonstrates his use of cyclic structure, dense harmonic language and inventive orchestration, reflecting key developments in his mature output and mid-19th-century symphonic practice.
First released: 1986
