Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony

Tabita Berglund conducts the ѿý Scottish Symphony Orchestra in Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony, and they are joined by Truls Mørk as soloist in Dvořák's Cello Concerto.

No composer does emotion quite like Tchaikovsky. “With desire and passion,” he wrote on the score of his Fifth Symphony. No wonder it’s one of the most popular symphonies ever composed. In this concert from Glasgow Tabita Berglund guides the ѿý Scottish Symphony Orchestra through all of this symphony's raw power and emotion. It’s a stirring climax to a concert that begins with a haunting folksong from the fjords of Norway, and stars the great Truls Mørk in Dvořák’s Cello Concerto: music of heartfelt tenderness and fearless beauty.
