It is possible that the English music publisher J. B. Cramer gave this name to the symphony; however, Percy Scholes fails to find any trace of this appellation before 1821. Sir Donald Tovey believes that no work by Mozart should bear the name of a Roman god, as his music is much more inspired by the Greek classical ideal. Each key had, for Mozart, a particular significance, and it was the C major key, he believed, that was best suited for ceremonies and festivities, pomp, and magnificence. This symphony is grandiose and, as with many works written by Mozart in this C major key, it requires a large orchestra with trumpets and timpani. The Jupiter is all clarity and elegance, constructed in a purely classical style; it is powerful but not heavy. I. Allegro vivace. The opening theme expresses a sense of victory and triumph. Mozart's thematic work duality, which begins with strength and continues with a melodious character, is very noticeable here. Despite the charm of the fundamental theme, the feeling of triumph persists throughout the movement. An inexhaustible wealth of variations testifies to great mastery of counterpoint. Also heard here is a theme taken from a light comic opera, a theme Mozart had composed earlier on the words: "You are a little stupid, my dear Pompey; you would do better to pay a little more attention to what is happening in the world." II. Andante cantabile. This movement has an elegiac character; its seriousness and breadth perfectly correspond to the basic sentiment of the symphony. III. Minuetto. It has a peaceful character. The opening motif, which serves as the basis for the entire movement, begins pianissimo but soon develops into an engaging rhythm that undergoes contrapuntal and chromatic variations. The trio, with its airy grace, forms an idyllic interlude. IV. Allegro molto. This finale is considered one of Mozart's great technical masterpieces. The movement is remarkable for its ingenious counterpoint as well as its heroic and grandiose character. F. H. Törnblohm wrote about this Allegro: "It is not surprising that the finale of Mozart's Jupiter Symphony has sparked many discussions, for if there is anything that bears witness to the triumph of the spirit over matter, it is this masterpiece. It is an Olympian Mozart, transfigured by a bright light spread over his entire being, who comes to meet us in the Jupiter Symphony." The entire movement is built on five simple and very short themes that oppose each other. These five themes all appear in different variations forming the grand coda with which the work concludes.

Ahhhh! Another treat! Thank-you so much for sharing it with us. 💐

Ferenc Fricsay est un chef sous-estimé.
One can only wonder what Mozart would have done with the symphonic tradition if he had lived longer.
He might have written... Mahler, ah ah ah ! And we wouldn't have nedded Ludwig van ! Wolfi was an exterminator !
There would've been more Mozaet5!
Ferenc Fricsay was well-known for his work with the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra (formerly the RIAS Symphony Orchestra, today the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin). This was one of the few times to the best of my knowledge that he did a session in Vienna.
This performance gives the feeling of being on a horse having it take off underneath you
In the best way
💖💖💖🎼🎼🎼🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹🇦🇹WE ❤ MOZART!!!
I like this big band sound as conducted by Fricsay. Have orchestras gone too far with period instrument performance?
no sex...
fRICSAY WITHOUT A DOUBT IS ONE OF THE THREE BEST CONDUCTORS OF ALL TIMES, ALONG WITH FURTWANGLER AND BOHM
Six! Those 3+Karajan, Bernstein, Toscanini
icluding Carlos Kleiber
Klemp
Klemperer and Walter
