Symphony No. 5 In E Minor, Op. 64
Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Philharmonia Orchestra & Leopold Stokowski
Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 64 is the fifth symphony by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, completed and premiered in 1888. The four-movement work employs a recurring motto theme to unify its material, moving from sombre introspection to triumphant gestures with lush late-Romantic orchestration, and represents a mature stage in Tchaikovsky's symphonic writing within the Russian 19th-century tradition.
