There are some interesting features to Mozart’s Symphony Number 39: it’s the only symphony from Mozart’s adult career that has no oboes, and the symphony begins with a slow introduction, which was uncommon for Mozart, but common for the time. It’s also one of the final three symphonies the composer wrote. Mozart’s 39th Symphony, our Evening Masterwork tonight at 7, on Classical WSMR 89.1 and 103.9.
