The Symphony in D minor is the best-known orchestral work and the only mature symphony written by the 19th-century composer César Franck. The work is unusual in being in three, rather than the traditional four, movements. It employs a cyclic form, with important themes recurring in all three movements.
The symphony was premiered in Paris on 17 February 1889 and despite dividing musical opinion, at the time and subsequently, it entered the international orchestral repertoire. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries it has been less frequently heard in concerts than it was earlier in the 20th century, but since the 1920s it has received more than 70 recordings by orchestras and conductors from around the world.
Les Éolides, (Op. 26), FWV 43, CFF 127, is a symphonic poem by French composer César Franck written in 1876 and premiered the next year. Its approximate duration is 11 minutes.
