Is it an odd-numbered symphony?

If so, is that a prime number?

[Catmando]

Is it a Divertimento? (I'm using this as a general term...I'm not sure, but are divertimenti and serenades the same?)

I won't count that question. I'm sure what exactly qualifies as a Divertimento, but it isn't in this case. It is a symphony.

Is it in a major scale?

Was it composed in the 200 years prior to the year that serves as the title to one of George Orwell's novels?

I guess that leaves just one Symphony: The Hen, # 83.

Correct Nav! I heard this symphony a few months ago on the radio, and it was cheerful and lighthearted, and both my girlfriend and I remarked that we liked it.
