FAUST: Orchestral and Choral Music

There is a whole lot of music based on FAUST. Here are four orchestral/choral examples from both the 19th and 20th C's.

Franz Liszt's Faust Symphony (1854-57)


Franz Schubert's Gretchen am Spinnrade (1814)


Hector Berlioz's The Damnation of Faust (1845-46) (sometimes performed in staged opera versions)



Alfred Schnittke's Faust Cantata (1982-83)
