Sinfoniettas (orchestras)
A sinfonietta is a symphony that is smaller in scale (either in terms of length or the instrumental forces required), or lighter in approach than a standard symphony. Although of Italian form, the word is not genuine in that language and has seldom been used by Italian composers. It appears to have been coined in 1874 by Joachim Raff for his Op. 188, but became common usage only in the early 20th century . Just as the term ''symphony'' itself can refer to pieces of music of varied size and scope, it is difficult to identify common criteria which pieces called ''sinfonietta'' share. Many of the sinfoniettas listed on this page employ larger forces and/or are longer than pieces designated symphonies, sometimes even by the same composer. Examples of sinfoniettas include: *William Alwyn's Sinfonietta for strings (1970) *Malcolm Arnold's Sinfonietta No. 1, Op. 48 (1954), Sinfonietta No. 2, Op. 65 (1958), and Sinfonietta No. 3, Op. 81 (1964) *Alexander Arutiunian's Sinfonietta for stri ...
