Symphonies Nos.40 & 41 "Jupiter"

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Berliner Philharmoniker & Karl Böhm

Symphonies Nos. 40 and 41 "Jupiter" are orchestral works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1788. They exemplify Mozart's late Classical symphonic writing: No. 40 is marked by tense minor-key expression and heightened chromaticism, while No. 41 features broad C major architecture and a complex contrapuntal finale, together illustrating his late-career advances in form, harmony and orchestral colour.
