Franz Schubert’s Symphony No. 1 in D major, D. 82, was composed in 1813 when he was just 16 years old. Despite his youth, this symphony is an impressive work, showcasing influences from Haydn and Beethoven.

The symphony is structured in four movements:

Adagio – Allegro vivace: A stately introduction followed by a lively and energetic section.
Andante: A serene and lyrical second movement.
Menuetto: Allegretto: A graceful minuet with a contrasting trio.
Allegro vivace: A spirited and dynamic finale.

This symphony is celebrated for its youthful exuberance, clear structure, and the balance between strings and winds. It remains a testament to Schubert’s early compositional talent.
