Best Answer

Mozart wrote 41 symphonies, but we don't have the manuscript for some earlier ones!

Answer 1:

Mozart is considered to be one of the most prolific composers, writing between 40 and 49 symphonies, 20 operas and 25 piano concertos, among other works.

It is usually accepted that Mozart wrote 41 symphonies. However, there is some dispute to this. While it is uncertain just how many he did write, it would seem it was not 41.

Christopher Lawrence, in his article "How many symphonies did Mozart write?" suggests that it could be as many as 71.

Answer 2:

There are 41 'numbered' symphonies by Mozart. But there are also quite a few 'symphonies' without numbers, and at least one of the numbered ones (no. 37) isn't by Mozart at all, but by Joseph Haydn's younger brother Michael (Mozart only wrote a slow introduction to it). The confusion arises because in Mozart's time words like symphony, overture and concerto weren't defined as strictly as they are today and the meanings often overlapped. Mozart's early 'symphonies' could equally well be called 'divertimenti' (they sometimes are!), and no. 32 is what we would now call an overture.
