| Description: Composed when Mozart was just sixteen, the finale of Symphony No. 20 bursts to life with youthful brilliance, cheerful energy, and effortless charm. This fleet footed Allegro, filled with rapid eighth note passagework, practically begs for crisp, off the string articulation at the frog. Nearly the entire movement can be played in first position, with only brief shifts in first violin and bass, making it accessible while still offering professional sparkle. Carefully coordinated bowings highlight Mozart’s light, dancing character, and performers will relish the exhilarating momentum that drives this delightful closer from beginning to end. |
