Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique, founded in 1989 by John Eliot Gardiner, performs Classical and Romantic music using the principles and original instruments of historically informed performance. They developed an extensive recording catalogue featuring symphonies, operas, concertos, and other major works by composers including Beethoven, Berlioz, Brahms, Gluck, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Verdi, and Weber. In 1993, the orchestra and the Monteverdi Choir made the premiere audio and television recording of Hector Berlioz’s Messe solennelle at Westminster Cathedral in London. The ensemble also appeared in the BBC television film Eroica, a dramatization of Beethoven’s own performance of his third symphony.
