Symphonies 4 & 6
Album by Franz Schubert & Smith Square Orchestra of St. John's & Oliver Gilmour
Symphonies Nos. 4 and 6 are orchestral compositions by Austrian composer Franz Schubert, completed in 1816 and 1818. They are rooted in classical forms and early Romantic harmonies, with sonata structures, varied wind textures, rich string sonorities and persistent rhythmic drive, and they were composed during Schubert's early mature phase when he expanded his orchestral scope.
First released: 1990
