Third of Three: Theme from Symphony No. 3; Mvt. 3 The Symphony No. 3 in C minor; Op. 78; was completed by Camille Saint-Saëns in 1886 at what was probably the artistic peak of his career. It is also popularly known as the Organ Symphony; since two sections out of four use the pipe organ. Of the composition Saint-Saëns said; “I gave everything to it I was able to give. What I have here accomplished; I will never achieve again.” The composer seemed to know it would be his last attempt at the symphonic form; and he wrote the work almost as a type of “history” of his own career: virtuoso piano passages; brilliant orchestral writing characteristic of the Romantic period; and the sound of a cathedral-sized pipe organ. This arrangement for string orchestra is the serious; C minor 6/8 theme from the scherzo movement of the symphony.
