Symphonie no. 6 "Pathétique" / Francesca da Rimini

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Carlo Maria Giulini & Sir John Barbirolli

Symphonie no. 6 "Pathétique" and Francesca da Rimini are orchestral works by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, composed in 1893 and 1876 respectively. Musically they represent different facets of his output: the Sixth Symphony is suffused with late-Romantic melancholy and dramatic contrasts across its movements while Francesca da Rimini is a programme-driven tone poem that uses vivid orchestration to portray a literary narrative.
First released: 1989
