Symphony No. 3

Album by Camille Saint‐Saëns & Berj Zamkochian & Boston Symphony Orchestra & Charles Munch

Symphony No. 3 is the third symphony by French composer Camille Saint-Saëns, completed in 1886. A late-period orchestral work, it blends Romantic harmonic language with classical forms and unusually incorporates the pipe organ and solo piano into the symphonic texture, synthesising Saint-Saëns's orchestral approach and reflecting French orchestral practice in the late 19th century.
