Symphony in Three Movements

    0.01 sec.

Symphony in Three Movements

Work for orchestra by Igor Stravinsky; composed 1942–45 and first performed in New York on 24 January 1946. The outer movements were inspired by Stravinsky's experiences of the war, as viewed from the USA. The central slow movement derives from music for a planned film on St Bernadette.
