Symphony N. 5 / Romeo and Juliet

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Philharmonia Orchestra & London Symphony Orchestra & Árpád Joó

This release pairs two orchestral works by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1869 and 1888. They exemplify his Romantic orchestral language, featuring sweeping lyrical melodies, rich string and brass textures and dramatic, programme-oriented gestures that mark his development from theatrical writing to mature symphonic expression.
