#SymphonyOfTheDay

Louise Farrenc (1804-1875)
Symphony No. 1 in C Minor, Op.32 (1842)

Farrenc's three #symphonies are deservedly emerging from almost total neglect. The stormy, romantic first is a particular favourite of mine.

#SymphonyOfTheDay

Charles-Valentin #Alkan
Symphony for solo piano
Jack Gibbons (piano)

Who needs an orchestra? Not Alkan. The French composer and virtuoso pianist was born #OnThisDay in 1813. His #symphony also forms part of his collection "Douze études dans tous les tons mineurs" Op. 39, which includes a concerto for solo piano as well!
