Jeffrey Tate
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Symphony No. 31 in D major, K. 297/300a, better known as the Paris Symphony, is one of the most famous works. The symphony is notable for having an unusually large instrumentation for its time, made possible by the large orchestra available to Mozart during his time in Paris. There are 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets in A, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani, and strings. It was Mozart's first symphony to use clarinets.
