Written to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the July revolution in 1830, the work depicts a solemn funeral march, a funeral address to the fallen and finally a triumphal march composed as a hymn of praise to liberty. The assembled players caused havoc when they marched off stage during the final movement at the first performance. Composer: Hector Berlioz Performers: Â鶹Éç National Orchestra of Wales Conductor: Thierry Fischer Recording date: 03 August 2009 Date of broadcast: 03 August 2009
