Tchaikovsky, Symphony No. 4 in F minor, Op. 36



Winner of a prestigious Emmy Award in 1976, Leonard Bernstein's recording
of Tchaikovsky's Fourth Symphony with the New York Philharmonic captures
the full drama and emotional depth of the work. Filmed live at Avery Fisher
Hall on 24 April 1975, the concert was an overwhelming success. Bernstein
returned to the Fourth again and again, and conducted it in 1989 in his
last appearance at Avery Fisher Hall. Critics called this interpretation
"rivetingly, definitively manic-depressive". He had come to identify as
closely with Tchaikovsky as he had with Mahler, and gave searingly intense
interpretations of both composers.
