Records D1407/8) (Synopsis: There are several interesting features in this work which deserve attention. There are only three movements of the Symphony in place of the usual four. In order to achieve a feeling of wnity Franck has given the work a cyclical form: the themes of the first and second movements are introduced into the finale. The last movement is an extraordinarily virile thing. It opens with pulsating strings, and the principal new theme is announced almost at once from bassoons and ’cellos. The violins snatch a fragment of this and build a new theme with which the climax is made. There is a sudden return of the beautiful first melody of the Second Movement, Later, further reminiscences appear, especially after a tumultuous climax built from a simple phase of five consecutive notes on the scale. When the climax has died down there is a feeling of unrest in the music, as if the spirit of unrest were striving to break its bonds, only to be continually repressed. Later, an important feature is the reappearance of the great theme of the first movement which, at the very moment when it is expected as a triumphant peal, melts into the theme). 9.14: "Messiah" (Handel)-(Soloists: Madame Gower Burns, soprano; Mrs. Anne Harper, contralto; Mr. Harold Prescott, tenor; and Mr. Clive Hindle, bass). .
