List of symphonies by name
This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article "List_of_symphonies_by_name".

While most symphonies have a number, many symphonies are known by their (nick)name.

For lists of symphonies by numbering, see following articles: No. 0 - No. 1 - No. 2 - No. 3 - No. 4 - No. 5 - No. 6 - No. 7 - No. 8 - No. 9 - No. 10 - No. 11 (and List of symphonies by Joseph Haydn, Musical works of Mozart#Symphonies, List of compositions by Dmitri Shostakovich,... and other composers who wrote a higher number of symphonies)

The present article lists both symphonies that are numbered and have an additional nickname as well as symphonies that are known exclusively by their name or key.
