Symphonie fantastique, op. 14

Album by Hector Berlioz & Philharmonia Orchestra & Otto Klemperer

Symphonie fantastique, Op. 14 is a programme symphony by French composer Hector Berlioz, composed and first performed in 1830. The five-movement work employs colourful orchestration, dramatic contrasts and a recurring idée fixe to depict an obsessive narrative, and it played a key role in Berlioz's development and in the expansion of Romantic-era orchestral practice.
