Tchaikovsky – Symphony No. 3
Composed in 1875, Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 3, later nicknamed “Polish,” combines the brilliance of a richly colored orchestra with an unusually festive spirit. Less dramatic than the composer’s later symphonies, it nevertheless displays the soaring melodies and Romantic warmth for which he is renowned.
