Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 7 is performed. Unfinished at the master's death in 1893, the work was reconstructed by contemporary Russian composer Semyon Bogatyrev, using rough sketches and themes from little known Tchaikovsky pieces . . . a scherzo from Opus 72; a piano andante (Opus 79). The symphony was first played in Moscow in 1957. Edouard van Remoortel conducts the ORTF Philharmonic Orchestra from France. Also featured is Prokofiev's "Classical Symphony."
