Symphony no. 3 "Organ Symphony"

Album by Camille Saint‐Saëns & San Francisco Symphony & Edo de Waart & Jean Guillou

Symphony No. 3 in C minor, Op. 78, "Organ" is the third symphony by French composer Camille Saint-Saëns, completed and premiered in 1886. A Romantic symphony notable for its prominent use of the pipe organ alongside a large orchestra, it employs cyclic thematic links and broad, richly textured orchestration that synthesises Saint-Saëns's late-period orchestral techniques with 19th-century symphonic traditions.
