Sinfonien Nr. 36 "Linzer" & 40

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Academy of St Martin in the Fields & Sir Neville Marriner

Sinfonien Nr. 36 "Linzer" & 40 is an album of symphonic works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, presenting pieces composed in 1783 and 1788. The music exemplifies Classical-era orchestral writing through balanced phrasing, transparent textures and dramatic motifs, and it represents a transition in Mozart's career from his earlier courtly style towards greater expressive depth and chromatic tension.
