By the time he wrote his Fourth Symphony, Tchaikovsky was obsessed by the idea of fate. From the powerful opening fanfare, right through to the majestic ending, it’s as dramatic as you’d expect from the master of Russian symphonies.
Erbyn iddo sgrifennu ei Bedwaredd Symffoni aethai’r syniad o dynged yn chwilen ym mhen Tchaikovsky. O’r ffanffer agoriadol rymus hyd at y diwedd mawreddog, mae’r un mor ddramatig ag y disgwyliech gan feistr symffonïau Rwsia.
By contrast, Shostakovich’s Festive Overture is almost carefree, brimming with unbridled joy. Also featured are two of the most popular of trumpet concertos, by Haydn and Arutiunian.
Yn hollol groes, mae Agorawd Gwˆyl Shostakovich bron yn ysgafala, yn berwi gan lawenydd di-ffrwyn. Mae yma hefyd ddwy o’r agorawdau utgorn mwyaf poblogaidd, gan Haydn ac Arutiunian.
