List of symphonies by number

Most symphonies by classical composers after the baroque era are indicated by a number:

*Symphony No. 0: Bruckner, Schnittke
*Symphony No. 1: Many classical era and quite a few romantic composers - not all 20th century (or later) classical composers wrote symphonies.
*Symphony No. 2: Many classical era and quite a few romantic composers, also some 20th century (or later) classical composers.
*Symphony No. 3: Many classical era and quite a few romantic composers, also some 20th century (or later) classical composers.
*Symphony No. 4: Many classical era and quite a few romantic composers, also some 20th century (or later) classical composers.
*Symphony No. 5: Many classical era and quite a few romantic composers, also some 20th century (or later) classical composers.

*Symphony No. 9: Many classical era and quite a few romantic composers, also some 20th century (or later) classical composers. An intangible predicament, known as "Curse of the ninth", made many romantic composers stop at (or about) N° 9.
*Symphony No. 10: Not uncommon for composers of the classical era before Beethoven, rare for later composers.
*Symphony No. 11: Not uncommon for composers of the classical era before Beethoven, rare for later composers.
*Symphony No. 12 and higher: Nearly exclusively classical era composers (Haydn, Mozart), a few less known composers of the romantic era, but again several from the 20th century on (Shostakovich, Hovhaness; Miaskovsky wrote 27 and Havergal Brian wrote 32)
