Orchestre symphonique de Montréal presents

The Organ Symphony by Saint-Saëns

Under the direction of French conductor Jérémie Rhorer, the OSM presents the final symphonic poem composed by the undisputed master of the form: Franz Liszt. Liszt left his mark on an entire generation of composers, and in fact it was to him that the majestic “Organ Symphony,” the last of Saint-Saëns’ symphonies and a masterwork of the repertoire for organ, was dedicated.
