In Spring

In Spring

Symphony #2 in A Minor, subtitled "Im Frühling" or "In Spring", is the second symphony by American composer John Knowles Paine.

The symphony was composed in 1879 and published in Boston in 1880, [Kenneth C. Roberts and John C. Schmidt. "John Knowles Paine". "Grove Music" online.] at a time when few American composers were able to find publishers for symphonic works. It was also premiered in Boston in 1880, and was extremely well received, prompting handkerchief-waving and shouting at the first performance.Chase, Gilbert. "America's Music". 3rd rev. edn., 1992, p. 342.] Historian Louis Elson compared its final movement to Robert Schumann's Symphony in B flat, which is also subtitled "Spring".
