LUIGI CHERUBINI (1760-1842): Symphony in D, Overtures to Médée, Faniska and Lodoïska.

Description: Being neither fish nor fowl in its mixture of Viennese classical tradition and the composer's own grounding in opera and sacred music, the 1815 symphony stands as an important example of a classical symphony outside the Haydn-Beethoven continuum. Lodoïska, passionate and suspenseful, already has some of the trappings of early romanticism. Sanremo Symphony Orchestra; Piero Bellugi.
