Description:
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) composed the Symphony No. 36 in C Major, K. 425, knows as the "Linz Symphony," within a few days in October/early November 1783 in the palace of Count Johann Joseph Anton von Thun-Hohenstein in Linz were, together with his wife Constanze, he stayed for three weeks on the way back from a trip to Salzburg. "On Tuesday, the fourth of November", wrote Mozart to his father on October 31 (the day after his arrival in Linz), "I will be giving a concert in the theater - and since I have no symphony with me, I am writing one as fast as I can, for it must be ready by then." Accordingly, this work was performed for the first time in the theater in Linz on November 4, 1783. A critical edition by Friedrich Schnapp based on the composer's manuscript is also available from the publisher. Instrumentation: 0.2.0.2: 2.2.0.0: Timp: Str (4-4-3-3-3 in set).
