18 Other early sources for the symphony cannot be proven authentic The Bentheim manuscript (D Bfb, Sign Moz 60) is generally accurate, shows evidence of having been copied from a score, and does not include some of the errors in the Salzburg and Donaueschingen copies, but cannot be directly connected with Mozart It is apparently of local origin and the earliest evidence for its copying is the acquisition or performance date September 1793 marked on the wrapper The copy includes parts for two clarinets that appear to be later additions Johann Wenzel's keyboard arrangement probably derives from the Donaueschingen copy (or perhaps other, similar Viennese professional copies) A copy in the Oettingen-Wallerstein collection (D:HR, Sign 2“ 709) is dated 1795 and was copied from André's first edition of 1793. A copy in Regensburg (D Rtt, Sign VV A Mozart 2) is listed in the earliest layer of the Catalogus samtlicher Hochfurstl Thurn und Taxische Sinpfonien and therefore dates from 1786-90 A manuscript in Florence (I Fc, shelf-mark F P S 61 (nr 2) appears to be a Viennese copy of the 1790s All of these copies take over readings from both the Salzburg and Donaueschingen copies, some of them include other, unique readings Hence contaminated versions of the symphony already circulated in the late 1780sGoogle Scholar

21 If Mozart did have second thoughts concerning the ‘Linz’, second thoughts transmitted by the later Donaueschingen copy, when might the changes have been made' During 1784, Mozart had several opportunities to perform the work he gave three subscription concerts with orchestra in the private hall of the Trattnerhof on 17, 24 and 31 March, and an Akademie at the Burgtheater on 1 April The programmes for the subscription concerts do not survive, the Burgtheater Akademie included ‘a grand symphony with trumpets and drums’, a ‘quite new grand symphony’ and, ‘to conclude, a symphony’ All of these concerts, however, took place before Mozart's score was sent to Salzburg and copied there, so the work cannot have been revised at this time It is not known whether Mozart's autograph was returned to him But what if Leopold Mozart brought the score to Vienna when he visited Wolfgang there in February 1785? And what if Mozart, who had composed no symphonies in the interim, decided to give the ‘Linz’ at his Burgtheater academy of 10 March 1785^? Although the programme for this concert also does not survive, like all of Mozart's other grand, public academies, it probably included one or more symphonies This may have been the occasion for which he revised the ‘Linz’ The appearance of Traeg's advertisement in April 1785, within weeks of Mozart's concert, then takes on a special significance, for Traeg's copies would represent the reworked version of the symphony Hence, if Mozart sold Donaueschingen a copy that derived from Traeg, it would of course transmit the revised textGoogle Scholar
