Symphony No. 17 (Mozart)

Symphony No. 17 in G major, K. 129, is the second of three symphonies completed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in May 1772, when he was 16 years old, but some of its sections may have been written earlier.[1]

Structure

Mozart wrote the symphony in three movements and is scored for two oboes, two horns, and strings.



  1. Allegro, 4
    4
  2. Andante, 2
    4
  3. Allegro, 3
    8

The first movement is notable for its use of the Mannheim crescendo, while the second movement features a solo violin.

gollark: It *isn't* in less gun-y countries like this one.
gollark: I lean somewhat libertarian, so I'd say "guns to anyone who is demonstrated to be reasonably sane and able to handle guns safely and is probably not a criminal".
gollark: Probably somewhat lower. I'm not certain. Addressing the causes of crime is probably generally better than increasingly strict weapons laws.
gollark: The UK seems to have substituted the possible gun crime problem an alternate UK would/might have for a knife crime problem instead.
gollark: High gun murders → states try and implement laws to remove guns.
