Symphony no. 41 "Jupiter" / Divertimento KV136

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Berliner Philharmoniker & Riccardo Muti

This recording pairs two orchestral works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1788 and 1772 respectively. The first is his final symphony and features an expansive multi-movement structure, rich orchestral textures and contrapuntal complexity in the closing movement, while the earlier divertimento reflects a lighter chamber-orchestra approach with clear formal balance and galant melodic writing, together illustrating different stages of Mozart's compositional development.
