Symphony No. 38 in D major, K. 504 "Prague" (1786)
1. Adagio - Allegro (0:00)
2. Andante (13:43)
3. Finale: Presto (23:05)
Czech Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Wolfgang Sawallisch
due to a mishap with the 3rd movement I decided to replace that with the Berliner Philharmoniker conducted by Karl Böhm.
Although Mozart's popularity among the Viennese waxed and waned, he was consistently popular among the Bohemians and had a devoted following in Prague. In spite of the fact that the Symphony No. 38 was first performed in Prague, it is not certain that it was actually written for Prague. Much of the confusion surrounds the chronology of its inception. It is clear that Mozart was invited to Prague on the strength of the reception of his opera Le nozze di Figaro during the 1786-87 winter season of the National Theatre (now called the Estates Theatre) in Prague. It is not known, however, when the run started, possibly in November 1786, possibly in December. No mention of the overwhelming success of Le nozze di Figaro is recorded in the Prague press until December 11, 1786, five days after the symphony was completed. It is certain that the opera's run began before that week, but there is no documentation to confirm when. It is known from a letter of Leopold Mozart written in January 1787 that Mozart was invited to Prague by a group of musicians and patrons. It is possible that this invitation came through long before Le nozze di Figaro was actually performed in Prague, perhaps during the time of rehearsals, when the brilliance of the music would have been recognized already by the musicians playing it. It is also possible that the Prague Symphony was intended to be performed for the Advent instrumental concerts given in Vienna in December 1786 along with the Piano Concerto No. 25, but all that can be established for certain is that it was not performed in Vienna before it was performed in Prague.

Love watching the master's hand writing go by as his divine music plays. Thank you!!
It is written that the Prague audience loved Mozart's opera The Marriage of Figaro, specifically the enchanting woodwind writing. To appease his Bohemian audience's palette, while not lowering his own, he composed this immaculate symphony.
One of my favorite symphonies. Thank you.
thank you so much for posting it with the manuscript!
Seguire un tale capolavoro sullo spartito scritto dall'autore, l'immenso Mozart, è un onore incommensurabile e una emozione profonda. Grazie per aver caricato questa meraviglia.
Following such a masterpiece on the score written by the author, the immense Mozart, is an immeasurable honor and a profound emotion. Thank you for uploading this wonder.
this is so good. infinite, circular energy just flowing
There is no such thing as hit or miss with Mozart's music
All is splendid, great.
The onlyproblem would be the good or bad performances and acoustics
What a masterwork! I think this and 39 are his greatest....despite the fame of 40 and 41....great as THEY are. (PS. And I think ALL a composer's repeats ought to be obeyed!)
LP's had not enough room for repeats. That's often the single reason why repeats were omitted.
Good point! But I've seen many conductors ignore them in live concerts. The worst of all is Beethoven 7 without repeats. ...especially the first movement.
Thank you!!! That's the original Score!! Wauuu!!
Fabulous to listen while following along the actual manuscript its awe inspiring.
Gracias y saludos cordiales desde Mallorca para ti también bartje bartmam explendido
Stunning !!
💝💝💝 TY
leaning chromatic scales for my misic class. the music sheet was handly thanks!
Beautiful hand writing. I'm playing 1st violin from the screen with the orchestra. So much fun to think Mozart himself wrote this.
Quill (or quill pen) is a writing tool which is made from a flight feather of a large bird and which uses ink to leave marks on a writing surface.
What feathers were used as pens?
Goose feathers were mostly used as they were easy to obtain, however more expensive feathers from swans were preferred. For making fine lines, a feather from a crow was the best, and eagle, owl, turkey, and hawk feathers have also been used.

@@aniag7490 Sorry darling, maybe Google translate or you learn English.
Proclus agrees with Bartje Bartman's assessment of Mozart's place on the firmament ... 🌹
Is it just me or does the part that lasts from timestamps 1:27 to 2:15 sound like it would be an allusion to Mozart's Rondo Alla Turca?
splendido vedere qui l'autografo, direi meno ascoltare: il finale e' PRESTO! pero' il direttore fa davvero venire il latte alle ginocchia
Mozart lets go
28:51
1:27 sounds a bit like the Turkish March from his 11th Piano Sonata in A.
Sound also like Don Giovanni ouverture and maybe other pieces...
But I think he was loving this kind of stuff with dobble crochets... Like the trills on his piano concertos, with broken chord accompaniment, and lot other things.

Thanks so much for this great dramatic recording. If I understood well, it is Sawallisch/Prague for the first two movements then Böhm/Berlin, is that right?
Warm greetings!
I really wanted to upload the complete Sawallisch but the last movement of my CD was damaged and didn't want to rip. Hence, the Böhm substitute.
Thanks for the reply, I do love it the way they play, I ordered an LP...
@@bartjebartmans splendido il suo post per gli occhi, meno per le orecchie: il finale e' terribile Non aveva una interpretazione migliore? Impossibile non trovare qualcuno migliore di Bohm
It has the same opening as don giovani overture
I love Mozarts Symphonies. To this RUclips User can you please post some of Mozart’s Piano Concertos?
They are all on RUclips with scores already.

At 1:40, on the top of the page there is like an h and an other letter in top of it.
Is it a Mozart joke or musical notation...?
Year of recording is 1980.
Peculiar that Mozart put a whole note in 4/4 in the middle of the bar, not at the beginning as we do nowadays ( at least, people who can read and write music, a dying race ;-)) . Was this common practice or a Mozart thing ?
Yes very common. Whole notes in the middle of the measure. Dotted half notes, the dot would be often put on the 3rd beat, not with the half note.

You need good bandwidth. This is a HD video.
Everything is played way too slowly (except for the Adagio)
Hummel (LITERALLY STUDIED WITH MOZART)wrote piano reductions for Mozart’s last symphonies and he left metronome marks. But everyone ignores them, as they ignore Beethoven’s.
Allegro minim=88
Andante quaver=126
Presto minim=100
Here’s the thing: people played faster than we do today, and Mozart and hadyn are probably no exception.
When will we start taking metronome marks seriously? If the goal is to be historically coherent , then our opinion is irrelevant if it contradicts the evidence. Aren’t you all tired of slow and careful performances that take no risks and sound ALL THE SAME?
Sorry I got a bit carried away
Music is simple. You like it or you don't. For the rest it is water under the bridge, sand through the fingers. Too slow, too fast. too this, too that is like scholars arguing about a speck on a manuscript score if it is a dot from a note or just fly poop. Enjoy the performances for what they are worth. Each one is different with their own merits, too bad if it doesn't adhere to your specific wishes.
For Wim Winters authenticSound even this is too quick.
Agree with all you said, except, I don't think the goal with music is to be historically correct. It's to enjoy ourselves.
Allegro のスピードは現代は早いように思います。モーツァルトの時代、都市間の移動は馬車です。都市内では石畳の道路、それ以外は舗装された道ではないはずです。生涯なんども旅をしていたモーツァルトは馬車のスピードを体感していたはずです。10年ほど前、馬車に乗る機会を得ました。モーツァルトのAllegroの速度感をそこから推測しました。カール・ベームの速度感は遅いという批判がありますが、馬車に乗った感覚、ウィーン、ザルツブルグの街の道を思い起こし、ベームの速度感は間違いではなく彼なりに模索した速度感だと思いました。楽器にしても、ヴァイオリン、ヴィオラ、チェロなどの弦楽器はガット弦だったはず、ガット弦を切らすことなく演奏するスピードには一定の速度があったに違いないです。
@@torusato401What you said about carriagws is very interesting but I don’t think it’s the correct way to approsch tempo research .In this instance we have metronome marks from someone who studied and lived with Mozart. And generally accounts of perforomance durations seem to indicate that people tended to play slightly faster than today
1:20 to 2:22 best part
23:25
