Jagdsinfonie

Template:Short description Template:Italic title The Jagdsinfonie or Sinfonia da Caccia for 4 Horns and Strings is a work by Leopold Mozart in the key of G major. It is scored for corni di caccia, or hunting horns, strings, and gunshots, a naturalism not atypical of this composer. Some performances add the recorded sounds of shouts and barking dogs.

There are 3 movements:

• Andante più tosto un poco allegretto a gusto d'un Echo
• Menuetto
