THE REASON THE NICKNAME "FARWELL"
WAS GIVEN TO THIS SYMPHONY
Peter Ustinov, Narrator



summer residence for too long,
away from their wives and families
who were back at the Prince's
main residence in Eisenstadt. In
the final movement each musician
finishes playing, snuffs out his
candle and leaves in turn until just
two violins are left playing. The
Prince took the hint and all were
allowed to return home soon after.
