Abstract
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791), one of greatest Austrian musicians who was undisputedly considered as the supramundane genius in the history of Western classical music. Mozart’s symphony No. 41 “Jupiter” is his last symphony. This article elaborates that “Jupiter” symphony not only has innovation and superior consciousness, but also has cosmological characteristic through example illustrations and analysis of application of counterpoint or polyphonic writing in the last movement of “Jupiter” symphony. Its composition technique that pursues symmetrical sequence is close to Boethius’s definition of Musica Mundana that it contains numeral, the order, and the supreme harmony of the heaven.
