Mozart's Symphony No. 36. in C. is called ' The Linz ' because it was written in the town of Linz. While staying there in 1783 with a certain Count Thun. Mozart gave a special concert. It is more than probable that he is referring to the Linz * Symphony in the following letter: ' As I have not a single symphony with me. I am writing one for dear life, to be ready in time '
