Berlioz: Symphonie Fantastique

Album by Hector Berlioz & Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky

Symphonie fantastique is a programme symphony by French composer Hector Berlioz, completed in 1830. The work uses large-scale orchestration, vivid orchestral colour and a recurring idée fixe to portray a dramatic programme of obsessive love and hallucination, and it occupies a pivotal place in Berlioz's career and in the development of 19th-century orchestral and programme-music practices.
