Berlioz’s fantastical symphony, penned when he was only 27, is a portrait of the life of an artist and his unrequited love, conjuring up hallucinatory visions of longing, obsession, and the depth of despair all in glorious orchestral sounds. Tchaikovsky’s charming and elegant Rococo Variations sparkles in the hands of a rising cello soloist.
