English term or phrase: orchestral palate
And there is great maturity in his (Schumanns) music, despite his struggles with mental health, which is translated in the refinement of Brahms and Tchaikovsky's orchestral palate. Indeed, both the Brahms violin concerto and Tchaikovsky's Fifth symphony employ the orchestral color of Schumann.

German translation:Orchesterpalette
Explanation:
Sollte es nicht im Original eher "palette" stehen? Z.B.

"Hell und Dunkel, Zartheit und Furor – kein Komponist seiner Zeit hat die schillernde Orchesterpalette des Klangzauberers Berlioz übertroffen..."

könnte es sich dann wortwörtlich um "Geschmack", um einen "Sinn fürs Orchester" handeln?
Aber an den meisten Google-Einträge kann man erkennen, gemeint ist palette anstatt palate. Und die Aussprache beider Wörter ist ja dieselbe.

Asker: Das dachte ich auch, aber mit "orchestral palate" erscheinen immerhin mehr als 400 Einträge im Google...

agree  Karin Maack: trotz der Google-Einträge kann palate ein Schreibfehler sein, Palette ist hier einfach sinnvoll.
