Tchaikovsky’s Fourth

From its opening horn fanfare to ecstatic, triumphant close, Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony is one of the most brilliant and colourful of all symphonies. Dedicated to Tchaikovsky’s key supporter and patron, Nadezhda von Meck, the Fourth spirals through dreaminess, melancholy and sweetness. The concert commences with the overture to the opera Ruslan and Ludmila by Mikhail Glinka, a composer who influenced Tchaikovsky in his early years.
