Talk:Symphony No. 36 (Mozart)

Untitled

edit

Will get the reference later, but Alfred Einstein notes that around the time of writing this symphony, Mozart copied out some of Joseph Haydn's symphonies' openings- one of which had a slow introduction (no. 75?)- the Linzer is the first of his symphonies to have one, and then he wrote a slow introduction for a Michael Haydn symphony for performance right afterwards, as noted in the link (the spurious "Mozart symphony no. 37"). May be a coincidence of course. Schissel | Sound the Note! 15:40, 2 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

"Andante" or "Poco Adagio" for the second movement?

edit

I see both. NMA says Andante. Steinberg says Andante. Brown says Poco Adagio in a table and then Andante in the text. My CD collection has four Andantes (Pinnock, Mackerras, Gardiner, Bohm) and two Poco Adagio's (Marriner, Kleiber). Is there a story behind the descrepancy? I'm leaning towards putting it Andante, but I don't normally see this level of disagreement. Thanks.DavidRF (talk) 01:36, 12 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
