Mozart Symphony No. 41, "Jupiter"
About this episode
Mozart's Jupiter Symphony is a piece that can practically define the classical era symphony. Mozart pulls out every trick in the compositional book and practically sums up everything written before him. It is a symphony full of musical cliches, self-references, and in some cases, flat out thefts from other composers. But as always with Mozart, the thrill of his originality shines through at every moment. Today we'll explore just how Mozart created this masterpiece of art and musical architecture. Join us!
