Symphonies nos. 40 and 41, 'Jupiter'

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & The Cleveland Orchestra & George Szell

Symphonies Nos. 40 and 41 (the latter nicknamed "Jupiter") are orchestral works by Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1788. They exemplify late Classical symphonic writing, combining taut, dramatic gestures and memorable melodic lines with sophisticated counterpoint and a broadened orchestral palette, marking the culmination of Mozart's symphonic output and an important development in the Classical symphony.
