We explore Mozart’s majestic final symphony with a vivid musical introduction by Tom Service and Nicholas Collon, followed by a complete performance of the ‘Jupiter’, delivered entirely from memory.
Mozart - Symphony No. 41 in C major K551, ‘Jupiter’
Tom Service - presenter
Nicholas Collon - conductor
Mozart’s final symphony, the ‘Jupiter’, is a work of scale, majesty and intensity, a continuous stream of joy and invention. Recorded at the BBC Proms in 2016, Tom Service and Nicholas Collon harness the power of an orchestra playing from memory to get under the skin of Mozart’s masterpiece, with a musically-illustrated exploration of the final movement. We then perform the ‘Jupiter’ entirely from memory, without chairs, sheet music or music stands.
As part of this broadcast, you’ll also hear directly from the players about the fascinating and rewarding process of committing a whole symphony to memory.
Filmed live at the Royal Albert Hall on Sunday 31 July 2016.
Staging concept by Aurora Orchestra. Footage courtesy of BBC Proms.

An electrifying performance. I can imagine Mozart listening in and saying: THAT'S how I meant it done! Bravo!

Watched this at the time, spellbound. Stunningly good then, and now. There is hardly a day that goes by when I don't wonder what Mozart would have gone on write...

you should definitely cut the introduction and post the symphony only here on youtube.. the long intro is probably the only reason why your perfomance has hundreds of likes instead of hundreds of thousands.. to me this is clearly the best performance of this great symphony ever!!

There’s also a 5th theme he didn’t mentioned first heard in the oboe

What a beautiful idea. Really knowing the music so well that you play it from your imagination. Vocal soloist, take heed: if you can't sing your pieces from memory, you're cheating yourself and you're cheating the audience. They'll never know how great an artist you are until you sing to them without looking down all the time, especially when you don't need to. When I go to a concert, I want to see what the soloist is seeing; I want to see their eyes holding mute. Holding the music is just an old custom based on holding the hymnal in church. We are called to music and to work hard at it. Show your stuff.

If all the music available to humanity boils down to Bach and Handel, Beethoven and Mozart, I wouldn't miss anything else.

I'd miss the richness of chromatisism, as much of their music is still predominantly diatonic and chromatic only for flavour.

Why the bassoon player look like that tho, and why the camera person keep zooming in 👀👀

Thanks . I have this music played by him. It is not same approach under this one. This is uncut and all repeat without 3movement. Why didn’t he play repeat?

The performance was so-so. I'm not saying "hem-haw",I'm not saying "lack luster". I'm not even saying it was a "50-50" performance. Because I know that the musicians all were well meaning.

Not bad at all!! BUT due to the relatively small size of the orchestra it lacks the "strength" or the "momentum" and "impact" of a full size orchestra.

The "strength" or the "momentum" and "impact" of this performance is greater than the 19th-century
