Tchaikovsky's 5th Symphony at Auditorio Nacional de Música

Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 64, one of the best-known symphonic works of the Russian Romantic repertoire, comes to the Auditorio Nacional de Música in Madrid in a classical music programme.

Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 64, was composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky in 1888 and premiered that same year in Saint Petersburg, with the composer himself conducting. It has four movements and is built around a recurring motif that Tchaikovsky linked to fate, an element that runs through the whole work and gives unity to its four parts.

The concert takes place at the Auditorio Nacional de Música, a concert and performance hall located at Príncipe de Vergara, 146, in Madrid. It is a regular venue for symphonic and classical music in the capital.

The programme is aimed at those who follow the repertoire of Russian Romanticism and want to hear live one of Tchaikovsky's most performed symphonies.
