Work on the symphony is documented from the late 1920s. Some surviving sketches are tentatively associated with it. Its exact dates and degree of completion are uncertain.

Approximate main period of work, not an established completion date. Kari Kilpeläinen’s study (FMQ, 1995) discusses evidence from 1926–1938; completion and the score’s fate remain disputed. The main material was probably destroyed in the mid-1940s; sketches tentatively connected with the symphony survive.
