Symphony: Mathis der Maler (Matthias the Painter) is among the most famous orchestral works of German composer Paul Hindemith. Music from the symphony was incorporated into, or reworked for, Hindemith's opera Mathis der Maler, which concerns the painter Matthias Grünewald (or Neithardt).

The symphony has three movements:

    Engelkonzert (Angelic Concert)
    Grablegung (Entombment)
    Versuchung des heiligen Antonius (The Temptation of Saint Anthony)

which correspond to the opera as follows:

    Overture
    Orchestral interlude from the last act
    Orchestral piece reworked and amplified into a visionary scene in Scene 6 of the Opera
