Inspired in part by his friend Johannes Brahms' new Symphony No. 3, and with a commission from the London Philharmonic Society, Dvorák composed a work with his darkest and most passionate content, writing to one of his friends: \"Now I am occupied with my new symphony (for London) and wherever I go I have nothing in mind but my work which must be such again as to make a stir in the world, and God grant that it may.\" This symphony, which shows comparatively few traces of the composer's folk Czech background, was dedicated to the London Philharmonic Society that commissioned it and is sometimes to referred to as the \"London Symphony.\" It was premiered by the London Philharmonic Orchestra in St. James' Hall, Dvorák conducting, on April 22, 1885.

An older idea that Ravel had as early as 1906 was to compose a work titled \"Wien\" (Vienna) as a tribute to the Waltz King Johann Strauss II. Before any work was completed, World War I intervened, and Ravel composed nothing as he served as an ambulance driver at the front. He returned to the idea when famous impresario and founder of Ballets Russes, Serge Diaghilev, commissioned a new ballet from Ravel in 1919. Upon hearing a piano reduction of the new composition, however, Diaghilev referred to the work as a \"masterpiece,\" but rejected the work as \"not a ballet. It's a portrait of ballet.\" A young Francis Poulenc, who was in the room at the time, reported that, \"Ravel proceeded to give me a lesson in modesty which has lasted me all my life; he picked up his music quite quietly and, without worrying about what we all thought of it, calmly left the room.\" The rejection destroyed Ravel's and Diaghilev's relationship, and when they met one last time, Ravel's refusal to shake hands resulted in Diaghilev challenging the composer to a duel, though the Russian was talked down. Since its premiere in Paris on December 12, 1920, the work has found a regular home in the orchestra repertoire and was even staged as a ballet in the 1950s. But, despite Ravel's own attempt to put to bed the notion that the work is symbolic, many see a commentary on the post-war Europe after the war; a distorted version of a Viennese waltz that critiques Austro-German militarism and looks back at the world where the waltz dominated as a bygone era, one that the war destroyed. Whether a \"dance of death\" or what Ravel describes as just \"a dancing, whirling, almost hallucinatory ecstasy, an increasingly passionate and exhausting whirlwind of dancers, who are overcome and exhilarated by nothing but 'the waltz,'\" La Valse continues to have a place in the concert hall today.

Originally conceived as an oratorio due to Saint-Saëns' admiration of such works by Handel and Mendelssohn, it was converted to an opera when the composer was convinced by a family member to abandon the less-used oratorio, designed to stage works with biblical themes, in favor of the more common and contemporary secular form. While composition began in 1867, consistent rejection by the French music world of any biblical stories used as a libretto caused numerous delays and spurts of abandonment of the project by the Saint-Saëns. And when the work was completed in 1876, the 1877 premiere in Weimar was only able to take place due to the support of Franz Liszt. Further interest around the world, including France, finally started to grow in the 1890s, leaving SAMSON AND DELILAH Saint-Saëns most performed opera today. The \"Danse Bacchanale,\" which takes place in Scene 2 of the third act, plays after Samson has been betrayed by Delilah and apprehended by his enemies, the Philistines. The Philistines plan a sacrifice to their god Dagon, and the temple priests dance wildly to this savage \"Bacchanale\" as preparation.

Elgar called the variations \"Enigma,\" not to be thought of as a riddle so much as a \"dark saying [that] must be left unguessed.,\" though he also hinted that a hidden melody is also embedded within the music. Each of the fourteen variations functions as a musical caricature of a specific friend, starting with his wife Alice (\"C.A.E.\"), and ending with himself (\"E.D.U.\"). The middle variations refer to: II. \"H.D.SP.\" (Hew David Steuart-Powell), III. \"R.B.T.\" (Richard Baxter Townshend), IV. \"W.M.B.\" (William Meath Baker), V. \"R.P.A.\" (Richard Penrose Arnold), VI. \"Ysobel\" (Isabel Fitton), VII. \"Troyte\" (Arthur Troyte Griffith), VIII. \"W.N.\" (Winifred Norbury), IX. \"Nimrod\" (Augustus J.

The Poème was inspired by a short story by Russian writer Ivan Turgenev, Le chant de l'amour triomphant, a fantasy set in Ferrara in the sixteenth century, in which a melody played on a violin produces a magic spell. The Poème was the second collaboration between the composer and Ysaÿe (the first was the Concert for solo violin, string quartet and piano in 1892). Chausson was grateful for Ysaÿe's participation - certain passages were influenced and\/or revised by Ysaÿe, notably the long cadenza at the beginning and the passages of doublestopping. Debussy was quite fond of the Poème, and wrote of it in 1913: \"The freedom of its form never goes against its harmonious proportion. The sense of dreamy gentleness is at its most touching at the end when, leaving aside all trace of description and anecdote, the music becomes that very feeling which inspires its emotion.

In truth, the music was secretly completed by Mozart's student Franz Xaver Süssmayr at Constanze's request. At the time of his death, Mozart had completed the \"Introit\" movement entirely, and he had sketched the \"Kyrie,\" \"Sequence,\" and \"Offertorium.\" The \"Benedictus,\" \"Agnus Dei,\" and \"Communio\" remained unwritten.

Bizet never intended to see the work published or performed, as he does not mention it in any of his letters, though some musical material does find its way into later works.  The manuscript was given to composer Reynaldo Hahn by Bizet's widow, who then passed it, along with other papers, to the conservatory library, where it was discovered by Jean Chantovoine in 1933.  The world premiere of this work written in 1855 took place in Basel, Switzerland, on February 26, 1935, under the baton of Felix Weingartner.
