Description
Franz Schmidt's Third Symphony was composed in 1927-28, dedicated to and premi?¿red by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, winning a first prize from the Columbia Graphophone Company of New York for the best symphony in the spirit of Schubert's 'Unfinished' Symphony as part of the centenary commemorations of Schubert's birth. Schmidt's symphony is lyrical, includes a set of variations, a Landler-like Scherzo and finale rich in thematic invention. In 1931 Schmidt added wind and percussion instruments and a large body of strings to his monumental Chaconne for organ, in which form it too was premi?¿red by the Vienna Philharmonic.
