Mozart’s 1780 symphony was written just before leaving his home town of Salzburg, and has a celebratory energy – it opens with a fanfare and ends with a jig. His dramatic Piano Concerto (1785), in contrast, is darkly romantic, even tragic. No wonder it was Beethoven’s favourite concerto. Nielsen described his Fifth Symphony – unusually, in only two movements – as exploring ‘the division of dark and light, the battle between evil and good. (barbican.co.uk)
