Berlioz: Symphonie Fantastique
Daniel Barenboim
This recording comes from WEDO’s 2009 Prom, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the West Eastern Divan Orchestra and marking a return to the roots of the orchestra’s conception in Weimar – a place where Liszt championed the works of Berlioz. The album contains Berlioz’s revolutionary Symphonie Fantastique, alongside Liszt’s colourful Les Preludes. These fiery pieces of music, charged with emotion, are recorded live, and performed with a thrilling, youthful energy by one of the world’s leading youth orchestras.
