Famous Symphonies in 5 Movements!
Jarl Sigurd
three or four movements. I understand that some
symphonies, however, have 5 movements. I'm wondering
if anyone could tell me which are the most notewothy
examples of 5 movement symphonies?

Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique.
Mahler's Symphonies No. 2 (Resurrection), 5 and 7. [The first version
of the 1st was in 5 movements, too, before Mahler rejected the Bluhmine
movement and made revisions to the remaining 4.]
Lots more, but this will get your list started.

Hmm. . . . Let's see; I'm in a jovial mood at present, since I'm
listening to Wolf-Ferrari's 3 violin sonatas, more Brahmsian than
Brahms!
So, returning to the issue at hand: Mahler's original Titan
symphony (the "Blumine" Titan); Berlioz's crypto-symphonic Fantastic
Symphony. One Schumann symphony. I've done my share; now it's somebody
else's turn.

Yes. Although you might not realize this if you just listened to it,
since there is no break between the 3rd, 4th, and 5th movements. But
Beethoven clearly marks 5 movements in the score.

Tchaikovsky's 3rd is in 5 movements, although it's his least
successful symphony.

Tchaikovsky's Third, the Polish, is actually remarkably successful,
except for the fugal section of the final movement. Everything else in
that work is PT at his greatest. Karajan's recording on DG is wonderful
-- I recommend that one for anyone who wants to hear this great music
for the first time.

There were seven posts responding to this by the time I read it, and
none mentioning the Suk "Asrael" Symphony!. A great piece, in a style
that I have heard described as "Mahler without the neuroticism".

the mention.
One of my favorites is Holmboe's symphony no. 9.
There are a lot of other examples. A favorite structure for such
works does seem to be three main movements (positions 1, 3 and 5) with
2 lesser movements between, though then again you have symphonies like
Vainberg's 7th symphony (Vainberg was a good friend of Shostakovich's and
a truly substantial composer in his own right) which sandwich essentially
3 intermezzi between 2 main movements. (Similarly his 10th symphony.)
And consider Shostakovich's own 13th symphony...
-Eric Schissel
John Shanty
I think Symphony No. 60 "Il Distratto" by Haydn is more than four movements
(six, I think).
Mahler No. 5, No. 7.
Mendelssohn No. 2 is many movements.
Mozart: (Un-numbered) Symphony in D Major, K. 250 is in five movements.
Schumann: Symphony No. 3
Tchaikovsky No. 3
Beethoven's No. 6

I once read a mystery novel (British, can't remember the title or
author) in which a guest musician was murdered during a concert under
circumstances that indicated that only another performer on the stage
could have done it (all of them with alibis -- i.e., they were
playing). It turned out that one of the works on the concert program
was the Mozart 36th Symphony ("Linz") and the murderer was a
clarinetist (who doesn't play during the Mozart). Far fetched, huh?
Now if the victim had been the conductor.....

picked up a CD by theLondon Philharmonic of Ernst von Dohnanyi's
Symphony #1 and it has 5 movements. Maybe not famous but I've enjoyed
it.
Bill Dishman
Gainesville, Florida
schi...@lightlink.com
Miaskovski 14 (I think)
Dohnanyi d minor (#2 by my reckoning since there's an F major before
it, #1 by everyone else's since they ignore the F major *g*)
Simpson 5 (maybe)
Frankel 6
Mahler 10 (probably mentioned)
Holmboe 4? (9 has been mentioned)
(ah, I see Mahler 10's been mentioned twice)
David Matthews' sym. 4 (on Collins Classics once)
(ok, we've left the famous category for good and all, but I'm having
too much fun. Sorry.)
Debatably, Alfven sym. 2 if one regards the finale's prelude as separate
from its fugue, but probably not.
Mennin's "Variations Symphony" (I think?) sym. 7.
Daniel Asia's symphony no. 2
Suk's symphony in c minor 'Asrael', op. 27 (Angband-fans take note-
sorry, just joking. Wonderful piece through and through if you don't
know it. If it's not famous it really, truly, deserves to be, and
with it I conclude was otherwise something of a miscellany despite
my inclusion of what are to my mind some masterworks - Simpson 5,
for instance, just to name one.)
-Eric Schissel
schi...@lightlink.com
(I've been pushing for the work to be recorded for some time, though
never within earshot of anyone with influence that I know of on a conductor-
well, almost never *g*- and so while I can't claim credit for it, the
two recordings of it, on Telarc and Chandos, and the announced one on
cpo, and the broadcast of a fourth on the BBC (which probably won't be
released commercially, but who knows), give me great happiness. And now,
after all this time, I've actually heard it (a few months ago,
on the radio), and it was worth all the tsuris of waiting...
(I'd first seen the score near the beginning of this decade. Of course,
others can relate stories of rather longer duration between expectation-birth
and expectation-fulfilment, I expect!)
(And then there's Rubbra's 3rd violin sonata's finally being recorded, but
that's another story entirely.)

Beethoven's 6th, a few by Mahler incl. the 2nd. and 3rd.

Don Drewecki
Dan, as I say, get that Karajan recording. The first movement, though fast, is not
hectic as Muti conducted it in a live performance with the Philadelphians 15 years
ago, and I think in his EMI recording too. Karajan's is also finer than the Philips
recording by, IIRC, Markevich. I still think the Polish is top-drawer Tchaikovsky.
