Manfred Symphony

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & London Symphony Orchestra & Michael Tilson Thomas

The Manfred Symphony is a programme symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, completed in 1885. The work employs expansive Romantic orchestration, dramatic contrasts and recurring thematic material to evoke a dramatic poetic narrative, and it occupies an unusual place in Tchaikovsky's output as an explicitly programme-driven large-scale orchestral composition.
