“Mozart In the Jungle” loves to engage in high-brow humor, taking the world of orchestra life and showing what people involved in it might be like when they’re not throwing around words like “coda” and “rondo.” But at the same time, it is not a show that lightly flings around its music. The classical pieces it has selected for its soundtrack this year show just how knowledgeable it is about the history of the medium. Here’s every song you can find in Rodrigo’s journey to Venice and the Symphony’s adjustment to a new status quo.
