Camille Saint-Saëns

Symphony no. 3 in C minor, op. 78, "Organ"

Op. 78

Composed 1885

Orchestral

The Symphony No. 3 in C minor, Op. 78, was completed by Camille Saint-Saëns in 1886 at the peak of his artistic career. It is popularly known as the Organ Symphony, since, unusually for a symphony of the late-Romantic period, two of the four movements use the pipe organ. The composer inscribed it as: Symphonie No. 3 "avec orgue" (with organ).
