Description
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s (1756-1791) SYMPHONY NO. 41 IN C MAJOR, K. 551 ‘JUPITER’ was completed on August 10th, 1788. The last and longest of his symphonies, it is uncertain if the work was ever performed in Mozart’s lifetime. It was reported by Mozart’s youngest son Franz that the nickname ‘Jupiter’ was coined by Johann Peter Salomon, though English publisher Johann Baptist Cramer might have also been the source. The work is considered by many to be among the greatest symphonies in the repertoire. Also available in a critical edition (A815702) by Haydn and Mozart expert H.C. Robbins Landon. Instrumentation: 1.2.0.2: 2.2.0.0: Timp: Str (4.4.3.3.3 in set).
