Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique

Kazuki Yamada conducts the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic in exuberant music by Berlioz, plus Bach and Josquin des Prez.

Kazuki Yamada conducts the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic in exuberant music by Berlioz; there's also a keyboard concerto by Bach and exquisite vocal music from Josquin des Prez.

Presented by Fiona Talkington

Berlioz's fantastical symphony is almost hallucinatory, taking us from daydreams to the scaffold and even to a terrifying witches' sabbath. Chief conductor-designate of the CBSO, Kazuki Yamada here leads the Monte Carlo Philharmonic in a fiery live recording made in the summer.
