Symphony No. 41 (Michael Haydn)

Michael Haydn's Symphony No. 41 in A major, Perger 33, Sherman 41, MH 508, written in Salzburg in 1789, is the last symphony he wrote (he lived for 17 more years).

The symphony is scored for 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, and strings. It is in three movements:

  1. Spiritoso
  2. Andante, in D major
  3. Fugato. Vivace molto.

The last movement is a vigorous fugato, something this work has in common with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Symphony No. 41 in C major.

gollark: You have to do something ridiculous like brute-force all universes/timelines consistent with your specs.
gollark: This is kind of tricky to reason about since obviously time travel breaks causality, which means we can't really ask "given some universe state, what happens next", but still.
gollark: Sophonts are defined as nondeterministic in some way, right? Presumably you could, though, force them to make a particular decision by making it the only consistent one. Or does the universe just proactively not allow that kind of situation?
gollark: Vaguely relatedly, how do the self-consistency things interact with the universe's enforced free will?
gollark: The simplest self-consistent result of any form of time travel existing is that you just never use it ever.
