It is a richer, more romantic work than its two predecessors, both through its orchestration and the more plastic quality of its themes with their stronger flavour of poetic fantasy. It also moves a step further away from the classical ideal and nearer to a romantic freedom of form. rThe Sixth Symphony was written in an entirely new formu2014each movement in a different historical styleu2014which baffled contemporaries. Today we accept compositions which work with musical styles from earlier periods such as Tchaikovskyu2019s Mozartiana, Griegu2019s Holberg Suite, Stravinskyu2019s Pulcinella or Richard Straussu2019 Dance Suite after Couperin but when Spohr pioneered the process with his u2018Historicalu2019 Symphony contemporary listeners and critics completely failed to comprehend this concept. But it is in fact a very effective work. The styles imitated are filtered through Spohru2019s imagination so giving the symphony its enduring fascination and providing it with a phoenix-like attribute of revival after each critical cremation.
