The Symphony No. 39 is the first of a set of three (his last symphonies) that Mozart composed in rapid succession during the summer of 1788, after supervising the first Viennese production of Don Giovann. The scholar and conductor Nikolaus Harnoncourt, he argues that Mozart composed the three symphonies as a unified work, pointing, among other things, to the fact that the Symphony No. 39 has a grand introduction (in the manner of an overture) but no coda.[2] - Wikipedia
The Symphony No. 39 is in the key of E flat major, which for Mozart implied warmth and solidity, even solemnity (in 1791 it was to be the home key of his ‘Masonic’ opera The Magic Flute). And these qualities are matched by the scoring for strings, with cellos and basses frequently separated and violas occasionally divided, and a wind section of flute, two clarinets (the newer instruments replacing the more usual oboes), two bassoons, two horns, and two trumpets with their associated timpani. - BBC
The orchestra is part of the Conservatorio Luca Marenzio in which I had the pleasure to conduct and direct.
