    Not many pieces of music can reduce me to an emotional wreck, left speechless at the utter genius of the composer……well…..this is one of them. Got it first on vinyl…wore it out. Bought it again…wore it out again!! 6:11 to the end literally makes my brain tingle.

    @Ch3ckm4t3 I totally agree. I say there are about 40 too many string players playing there.

  3. Ch3ckm4t3 Says:

    When Mozart Symphony played by a full Romantic size orchestra, the string section just seemed a bit too heavy for me.

    If my band conductor was at this performance, she would literally kill the flautist because she’s playing her flute at a 45 degree angle…

    @member2798 hmm see i like it sped up. i think it adds to the agressive and spastic nature this piece seems to have…

  24. thesir27 Says:

    occasionally there’s a trombone in his scores (Magic Flute overture has one). an uncommon instrument to have in an orchestra in his time

    It’s to bad Mozart didn’t write for trombone.
