Sinfonia "La Grande" D. 944, Ouverture in Mi minore D. 648

Album by Franz Schubert & BBC Philharmonic & Gianandrea Noseda

Sinfonia "La Grande" D. 944 and the Overture in E minor D. 648 are orchestral works by Franz Schubert, composed in 1825-1826 and 1819 respectively. The music combines expansive classical symphonic structures with Schubert's lyrical melodic writing and rich orchestral colouring, with the larger D.944 representing a late, large-scale statement in his orchestral output while the overture illustrates his earlier, more compact dramatic style.
First released: 2004
