Fri, Feb 21, 2025, 19:30Camille Saint-Saëns considered his Symphony No. 3, also known as the "Organ Symphony", his most significant work. While the organ doesn't solely feature as a virtuoso instrument, it complements the orchestra, adding a unique sonic dimension. Similarly, Poulenc's colourful concerto blends sacred and lively fairground sounds. Hindemith's "Symphonic Metamorphoses" also combine contrasting elements, with his lighthearted approach to Carl Maria von Weber's romanticism meeting modern American musical influences.A summary from original text in German | Read the original
