Symphonien nos. 40 & 41 »Jupiter«

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Berliner Philharmoniker & Herbert von Karajan

Symphonien nos. 40 & 41 "Jupiter" are two symphonies by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1788. They exemplify late Classical orchestral writing with turbulent minor-key drama, lyrical themes, balanced wind-and-string textures and sophisticated contrapuntal writing, and they represent Mozart's final symphonic statements, marking the culmination of his symphonic development.
First released: 30th March 1992
