Evening Masterworks: Louise Farrenc's Symphony No. 3 in g-minor, Op. 36

Louise Farrenc is a relatively new composer to many American audiences, but in her lifetime – in early 19th-Century France – she was widely known and held in high regard. Her Symphony No. 3 was the final one she would compose, a work completed in 1847, and molded completely in the style and form of the symphonic writing of her time. It’s our Evening Masterwork tonight at 7 on Classical WSMR 89.1 and 103.9.
