Composition background
In 1781, Mozart moved to Vienna, finding that he could not show his musical talents in Salzburg. In August of the following year, despite his father's opposition, he married Constantine, 20, at St. Stephen's Cathedral. In June 1783, the couple gave birth to a son (Raimund Leopold Mozart), six weeks later the couple left their child to visit his father Leopold and traveled to Salzburg. Two weeks later his son died of Jean Sejil (although not sure), Mozart said he heard the news after returning to Vienna five months later. In any case, Leopold's father Konstanty, who opposed his marriage to Konstantin, had a very bad relationship with Mozart, and there was a significant conflict between them. Despite this situation, however, the trip was a very productive trip. However, three months later, on Oct. 27, Mozart left for Salzburg and headed for Vienna. On arrival in Linz on the 30th of October, the couple received great hospitality. Mozart was a piano teacher of the daughter of Count Thun-Hohenstein, and the earlest supporter of Mozart reached Mozart for a concert on November 4th. But Mozart did not have a concert at that time. A letter to Salzburg's father on October 31, 1783, the day after Mozart arrived was as follows:
"We arrived here yesterday at 9 o'clock yesterday, and we will have a concert at the theater here on Tuesday (November 4), but I do not yet have a symphony, so I have to write a new symphony soon by then"
And to his amazement, he completed a symphony in four days after he started composing. The gun was not finished, but the part was finished, and he even rehearsed it before the Tuesday evening performance. But unbelievably, it was written in four days and it was the best of Mozart's compositions at that time, and it was his longest song in four days. In writing this piece, Mozart made a new attempt that he had never done before. The adagio part of the western part refers to the part of Michael Hayden (Joseph Haydn's younger brother), which is the later symphony, the 38th (Prague) And 37 only. Later, Joseph Hayden likes this "slow west" format in his late symphony (London Symphony). The symphony No. 36 in this composition was known to us as 'Linz' after the name of the place where it was composed and premiere. It is a work of self-confidence and maturity in his music world. It is a monumental work of Mozart as a symphony composer whose impatience has disappeared. This symphony also reflects the emotional stability of Count Hohensteiner's hospitality and the good scenery and environment of Linz compared to Salzburg. This was possible because Mozart had already finished composing the new symphony in his head and he had to put it on his front line. One thing to note here is the orchestra composition of this song. Count Thun-Hohensteiner was an avid music lover, and he had a decent orchestra at the time, not the best of Europe. At that time the orchestra of the Count had a trumpet and a timpani player, while (strangely) did not have a flute runner and a clarinet runner. This orchestra, unlike its predecessors, gave it a great deal of force and extroversion, but eventually became a symphony with no flute or clarinet.
Speakers of this song tend to ignore Mozart's agony and passion for music, which is often referred to as "joyful, lively, and amazing," but often down the track. It is not known yet about this song, but Mozart is able to guess roughly three months later on his return to Vienna on February 20, 1784, in a letter to his father.
"Two gentlemen are due to visit Salzburg soon, and I asked them to bring a Sonata, a symphony (Linz), and a new concerto. The symphony is the original, and it's okay to send it back, throw it away, or perform anywhere. "
It can be inferred that Mozart wanted to be performed in front of many audiences rather than making money by making songs. It was later recorded in Vienna on April 1, 1784, and was premiered by Leopold in Salzburg on September 15, 1784, at the home of Dr. Barisani. Leopold gave Mozart a "wunderbar" rating for the piece, and after the composer's death there is a record that the piece was often played annually.
The slow beginning of the first movement gives a different feeling to the composition of the whole song. Allegro Spiritoso, who later became known to have introduced Mozart's slow west style to his C major symphony (unfinished), wrote his first symphony before writing it. It gives more stability.
The Andante of the second movement (commonly known as Poco Adagio) * is the first movement to use the trumpet and timpani (drums) in the symphony's slow movement, unlike the slow (2) movement of the other quiet, To give a tragic feeling and a dramatic element. This movement of the 6/8 rhythm has a similar theme with Sicilian style, Largo alla Siciliana, the third piece of Handel's 'Royal Fireworks'. Minuet in the third movement is a fine waltz, and this form is reflected to some extent in the marriage of Don Giovanni and Figaro. The final movement of Presto (Michael) was based on Haydn's melody and outline. But Alfred Einstein said, "The chromatic passivity and fluid texture that Haydn did not know appeared in the hands of Mozart, even though Mozart did it in haste," even though he refers to the form of Michael Hayden It is obvious that Mozart's work should be done with this song.
* The second movement of this song was known as 'poco adagio' even 20 years ago. However, it has recently been confirmed that Andante was replaced by Mozart's original directive 'Andante' in the nineteenth century by Poco Adagio.
** Symphony No. 37 in Mozart is considered to be a song by Michael Hayden, not Mozart's.
