1812 Overture & Symphony no. 6 in B minor

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Orchestre symphonique de Montréal & Charles Dutoit

The 1812 Overture and Symphony No. 6 in B minor are orchestral works by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1880 and 1893 respectively. The pieces exemplify Tchaikovsky's late-Romantic orchestral style, with the overture employing prominent brass and percussion effects and the Sixth offering a brooding, lyrical symphonic arc as the composer's final completed symphony and a significant work of his late career.
