This work's opening is referenced in its composer's later "La Reine" symphony, while the horn theme of the third movement's trio is taken from a Gregorian chant previously used in his "Lamentation" symphony. While its second movement is led mostly by muted violins, its first movement changes its sonata form and introduces the second theme, in D major, only at the end of the development. Its opening features the winds holding chords and the violins split into syncopated notes and two-octave descending minor arpeggios. This piece is unusually in F-sharp minor, and its last movement switches from presto to adagio and features a series of solos beginning with the first oboe and second horn. Endi
