Given Op.7 in a worklist on Earsense which gives 1904 for the composition date. The main (Animé) section of the first movement is in C minor, so strictly speaking the Key/mode of the work is C minor, not major (though this rule isn't ironclad; Ludolf Nielsen's 2nd symphony is in E major despite a first movement in E minor also surrounded by E major slow sections.)
