Symphonies No. 5 and No. 10 "Romane" are organ symphonies composed by Charles-Marie Widor in 1879 and 1900, respectively. Symphony No. 5 is renowned for its final movement, the Toccata, often performed at festive occasions, while Symphony No. 10 integrates Gregorian chant themes, reflecting Widor's inspiration from the Romanesque architecture of the Basilica of St. Sernin in Toulouse.
