Today I discovered 2 symphonies by Carl Loewe from the early 1830s. Of course I love his songs but didn't realize that he also wrote symphonies:
I. symphony no. 1, d-minor:

Here I love the great ending of the 1st movement, starting at 6:00. Also the Scherzo theme is nice, but repeated a bit too much, I think.
A special treasure is the most tender Adagio espressivo in the beginning of the Finale - actually the whole Finale I like very much!
II. symphony no. 2, e-minor:

Also a remarkable 1st movement with a beautiful Allegro main theme (1:20) and a wonderful Coda ( 8:10 ff.)
Furthermore I like the Finale also very much...
