Other two-movement symphonies worth mentioning:Bentzon 4Chávez 5Creston 2Eshpai 2Kinsella 3Lundquist 1Norgard 3Nystroem Sinfonia seriaSzymanowski 2Toch 5Tournemire 6
Well, already mentioned:- Pettersson 8- Nielsen 5- Gorecki 2also:- Pärt 1I don't think Pettersson 6th is in two movements
Some interesting choices, Cesar. I especially like the Chávez, Eshpai, Szymanowski and Nørgård. My own list would include K. A. Hartmann’s 6th and William Schuman’s 3rd. Another vote for the Webern, too. What a quirky work!
The Lajtha is in 4 movements. Perhaps you meant the 5th.
Webern's is in 2 movements. Somebody's favourite, surely?
The two that spring to mind immediately are Nielsen's 5th and Holmboe's 6th.
