The Symphony for Organ No. 5 in F minor, Op. 42, No. 1, is an organ symphony composed by Charles-Marie Widor between 1878 and 1879, whilst he was the organist at Saint-Sulpice in Paris. It was first performed in public on 19 October 1879, when it was played by the composer at the city's Trocadéro Palace. Following its initial publication, Widor made changes to the work in four subsequent editions. The full symphony lasts for about 35 minutes, and was recorded by Widor in April 1932.
