Mozart’s final trilogy of symphonies are visionary, pioneering works, as powerful as they are passionate, and represent a lifetime of emotion and experience from a composer at the height of his musical creativity. They’re also a mystery, written together in a blaze of white-hot creativity, though it’s not known why – some even suggest Mozart may have conceived them as a single, monumental mega-symphony.
Principal Conductor Maxim Emelyanychev and the SCO drew adulation from critics and audiences alike for their fresh, incisive performances of these symphonies at the 2021 BBC Proms. Discover – or rediscover – the pieces’ compelling power as Maxim brings his vibrant visions to Scotland, from the elegance and warmth of No.39 to the deep passions and drama of No.40, and the triumphant glories of No. 41, the ‘Jupiter’ Symphony.
