Waverly Overture

Composer: Hector Berlioz
Performers: Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Symphony Orchestra
Conductor: Michael Seal
Recording date: 05 May 2015

This magnificent overture begins with a slow and lyrical introduction before moving into a brilliant, carefree allegro with Italian-sounding joyous music. Despite this being Berlioz's first purely orchestral work, it is remarkably well crafted, foreshadowing the composer's later, greatest heights.
