The
symphony is scored for two
flutes, two
oboes, two
horns, two
trumpets and
strings. The flutes are silent for the third movement. The symphony consists of the following movements: The first movement is the
overture of the opera
Il re pastore, while the second movement is the first
aria from it, Aminta's "Intendo, amico rio", with the
castrato voice replaced by a solo oboe. Eight additional
bars were composed to replace the final bar of the aria, so as to allow the movement to lead directly into the third movement. The second movement is not written out completely, and Mozart may have indicated to a
copyist to replace the voice with a solo oboe. It was once considered that the March in C, K. 214, might be connected to the final movement, but this hypothesis has been disproven. \relative c'' { \set Staff.midiInstrument = #"string ensemble 1" \key c \major \tempo "Molto allegro" \set Score.tempoHideNote = ##t \tempo 4=144 \f r r r8 c,,-.\p b (c) b (c) f (e) r e-. d (e) d (e) a (g) r g-. fis (g) fis (g) bes (a) r a-. c (b) r b-. } ==References==
