Symphony No. 29 in A, K. 201/186a

Description

Composed in 1774 when Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) was just 18 years old, SYMPHONY No. 29 in A major, K. 201/186a marks a significant step forward in the young composer's symphonic writing. Created during a productive period in Salzburg, this symphony showcases Mozart's developing mastery of orchestral color and formal structure, blending the elegance of the Classical style with a youthful energy and emotional nuance.

Its charm, refinement, and emotional depth have secured its lasting place in the orchestral repertoire. Instrumentation: 0.2.0.0: 2.0.0.0: Str (4.4.3.3.3 in set). Reprint edition.
