Symphony 5 on CD
Paavo Järvi, Principal Conductor and Music Director of the Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich since October 2019, here launches a complete recording of Tchaikovsky's symphonies, the first in both his rich discography and that of the Swiss orchestra: 'When I think of the Fifth Symphony, I think of vulnerability and hope. It looks directly into our soul. It is perhaps the finest of his symphonies. The famous horn solo moves me and enriches me every time I hear it... Unlike the Sixth, the Fifth still holds out hope for life.' The symphonic poem Francesca da Rimini op. 32 completes the programme. This dark and violent 'symphonic fantasy after Dante,' a drama of jealousy, was premiered in 1877, at the same time as Swan Lake.
