Deutsche Sinfonie, Op. 50, is a composition for soloists, chorus and orchestra by Hanns Eisler. Despite the title, it is considered to be more in the style of a cantata than a symphony. Principally composed between 1935 and 1947, but not completed until 1957, it is an eleven-movement setting of poems by Bertolt Brecht, drawn mainly from Brecht's Songs, Poems and Choruses of 1934, and by Ignazio Silone, adapted by Eisler. It was premiered in its full form at the Berlin State Opera, East Berlin, on 24 April 1959. Brecht had died in 1956.

| - Deutsche Sinfonie, Op. 50, és una composició per a solistes, cor i orquestra de Hanns Eisler. Malgrat el títol, es considera que té més l'estil d'una cantata que el d'una simfonia. Principalment compost entre 1935 i 1947, però no va ser completat fins al 1957, és un enquadrament d'onze moviments de poemes de Bertolt Brecht, escrits principalment a Cançons, Poemes i Cors de 1934, i per Ignazio Silone, adaptats per Eisler. Es va estrenar en la seva forma plena a l'Òpera Estatal Alemanya, Berlín de l'est, el 24 d'abril de 1959. Brecht havia mort el 1956. El tema d'Eisler era l'avenç de Nazisme dins Alemanya. Tot i així el compositor va trobar dificultats en la representació i recepció de l'obra i d'aquí ve el període llarg de composició i desenvolupament. Quan els primers dos moviments (llavors subtitulkada Un Simfonia Anti-Hitler) va guanyar un premi al 15è Festival de la Societat Internacional per Música Contemporània, obtenint una actuació promesa per a l', el règim Nazi va persuadir el govern francès que va haver de cancel·lar l'actuació. No va ser fins al 1995 que l'obra fou finalment enregistrada en un estudi, amb solistes i la Leipzig Gewandhaus Orquestra dirigida per Lothar Zagrosek. (ca)

It was premiered in its full form at the Berlin State Opera, East Berlin, on 24 April 1959. Brecht had died in 1956. Eisler's theme was the advance of Nazism in Germany. Yet the composer encountered difficulties in both reception and performance of the work throughout its long period of composition and development. When the first two movements (at this stage subtitled An Anti-Hitler Symphony) won a prize at the 15th Festival of the International Society for Contemporary Music, gaining a promised performance of them at the 1937 Paris World Exhibition, the Nazi regime persuaded the French government to have the performance cancelled. And it was not until 1995 that the work was finally given a studio recording, with soloists and the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra under Lothar Zagrosek; this was released in Decca Records' Entartete Musik series.
