Schubert's 'Tragic' Symphony and Mozart's 'Paris' Symphony are performed by the Wiener Philharmoniker under the baton of Nikolaus Harnoncourt at the Wiener Musikvereinsaal in 1984. Harnoncourt goes back to Schubert's original manuscripts to perform the music in its purest form - the result is music that is full of heightened drama and dynamics. Harnoncourt joined forces with The Chamber Orchestra of Europe for Mozart's last symphonies (Nos. 39-41) performed at the Wiener Musikvereinssaal in 1991. Known throughout the world for his highly original approach to classical music conductor Nikolaus Harnoncourt reveres Mozart as 'the most romantic composer of all'.
