It was composed for and commissioned by Paganini, who never played it because the viola solos weren't flashy enough for him (Harold actually takes poison and dies in the finale, leaving the orchestra to finish without him). Though disappointed, Berlioz was mollified by the fact that Paganini paid him anyway. It's since become the composer's most frequently performed large orchestral work, first because there's so little good music for solo viola, and second because it's well within the financial resources of most orchestras, the instrumentation being substantial but not ridiculous. This budget-priced performance is both loving and expert, while the couplings are well-chosen. --David Hurwitz\n\nProduct Description\n\n[Note: This product is an authorized CD-R and is manufactured on demand]\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0000028WU\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0000028WU.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hector Berlioz|Eugene Ormandy|Daniel Barenboim|Charles Munch|Philadelphia Orchestra|Orchestre de Paris|Joseph de Pasquale\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
