About The Record:

The 1958 album Symphonic Treasures, Album 16, released by Disc Records, features two of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s renowned works: Symphony No. 36 in C Major, K. 425 ("Linz") and Symphony No. 40 in G Minor, K. 550, performed on vinyl LP in the United States. The Symphony No. 36, composed in 1783, includes four movements—Adagio Allegro Spiritoso, Poco Adagio, Menuetto, and Presto—while Symphony No. 40, written in 1788, comprises Allegro Molto, Andante, Menuetto - Allegretto, and Finale: Allegro Assai, showcasing Mozart’s mastery of classical form. As part of the Symphonic Treasures series, this record reflects the era’s high-fidelity vinyl boom, making classical music accessible to a broader audience during the late 1950s. Its historical significance lies in its contribution to the popularization of Mozart’s symphonic works in mid-20th-century America, though no specific performers or conductors are noted in the release details.
