MOZART Symphony No. 35, "Haffner"
HINDEMITH Suite of French Dances There was pressure for Mozart to make his Symphony No. 35 truly great. After all, it was commissioned by the Haffners, one of Salzburg's most influential families. He wrote it quickly in a flurry of inspiration. What results is a work that can be fiery and frenetic one moment and tranquil the next. Principal oboist Alexandra Rock will shine at this concert, as well.
