Context paragraphs:
Little Symphony No. 2 (Milhaud): The Little (Chamber) Symphony No. 2, Op. 49, by Darius Milhaud (not to be confused with Symphony No. 2) is a three movement piece written for chamber orchestra, consisting of flute, English horn, bassoon, violin, viola, cello, and double bass.  Milhaud composed this piece in 1918, one year after his first chamber symphony.  It was fairly early in his composing career, while he was still employed as a secretary to the French ambassador to Brazil.  Milhaud wrote this short symphony at sea, during a return voyage to France.  Influences of Latin American rhythms and references to South America’s picturesque landscape are present throughout the piece.

Little Symphony No. 6 (Milhaud): Little (Chamber) Symphony No. 6, Op. 79, composed by Darius Milhaud in 1923, is a work for oboe, cello, and wordless chorus (soprano, contralto, tenor, bass).  Milhaud visited the United States in 1922, and composed this piece in 1923 while in New York City.  While there, he heard live jazz and its influence is evident in this piece and his following works, including the 1923 ballet, La création du monde.  Little Symphony No. 6 was published in 1929 by Universal separate from previous five, which were published in by Universal in 1922 and were reprinted by Dover in 2001.  It is also the only piece out of the six with no subtitle attached.  The Little Symphony No. 6 is a somewhat separate entity to the previous five.  It premiered at the Concert Wiener in Paris in 1924.

Little Symphony No. 1 (Milhaud): Little (Chamber) Symphony No. 1 “Le Printemps” Op. 43, as the first of a collection of six “Little Symphonies,” by Darius Milhaud is a symphony by name, due to its length of just over 3 minutes.  This piece should not be confused with Milhaud's Symphony No. 1.  The piece was composed in Rio de Janeiro in the year 1917.  It first premiered in Rio de Janeiro in 1918, and was published by Universal in 1922.  The influence of Brazilian culture, jazz, and polytonality is very clearly seen in this series of symphonies.  According to Milhaud himself, he was quite attracted to the unusual quality of small groups of instruments, which is why he embarked on his series of Petites Symphonies.  Due to the fact that he was living in Brazil, acting as assistant to the diplomat/poet Paul Claudel, at the time he wrote this first symphony some of the Brazilian influence can be viewed in his work.  This first symphony was written for piccolo, flute, clarinet, oboe, harp, 2 violins, viola, and cello.  Overall, this piece has a very simple melody, contains polytonal elements, and possesses a pastoral, folkish feeling throughout.  The melodies and pitches evoke a light, airy feeling, such as that of the spring, thus alluding to the symphony's subtitle.

Symphony No. 79 (Haydn): The Symphony No. 79 in F major, Hoboken 1/79, is a symphony by Joseph Haydn.  It was composed in 1784.  The 79th Symphony is characterized by a strong and joyful opening theme as well as varied rhythms throughout all four movements, especially in the minuet.  The wind section alternated throughout the symphony either doubling the string section, enriching the tempo and solos void of virtuosity.  Of note are long rests which were uncommon in early classical symphonies.

Symphony No. 3 (Milhaud): The Symphony No. 3, Op. 271, sub-titled "Te Deum", is a work for orchestra and chorus by French composer Darius Milhaud.  The piece originated in a 1946 request by Radio France for a Te Deum celebrating the allied victory in World War II.  Instead of confining himself to a setting of the liturgical text, Milhaud delivered a four-movement symphony in which the orchestra plays two movements (I and III) alone.  The chorus joins without words in Movement II; only in the finale is the Latin text of the Te Deum sung.  This symphony is not to be confused with Milhaud's Chamber Symphony No. 3 "Sérénade," op. 71 (1921).
