Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Symphony no. 36 in C major, K.425, "Linz"

K. 425

Composed 1783

Orchestral

Mozart's Symphony No. 36 in C major, K. 425, also known as the Linz Symphony, was written over four days in November 1783 when the composer and his wife Constanze stopped in Linz on their way home to Vienna after a trip to Salzburg. When Johann Joseph Anton, the Count of Thun, heard of the composer's arrival, he announced a concert. The symphony premiered in Linz on 4 November 1783, and was later performed in Vienna on 1 April 1784. The autograph score of the symphony was not preserved, but sections sold by Mozart to the Fürstenberg court at Donaueschingen in 1786 survive.
