Despite being in four movements, suggesting an element of progression, Mozart had little new to say here and much of the influence of the work comes directly from Haydn. Similarly, although the opening movement has some interesting features it relies very much on ideas from previous compositions, while the Andantino is scored for strings alone and the Minuet lacks any strong originality.
The final movement has links to the opening but lacks any convincing argument. K is perhaps the most significant in its position as Mozart Complete Edition 4 the final part of the series of Salzburg Symphonies, concluding the period up to The opera was first performed in Milan on 17 October as part of the marriage celebrations of Archduke Ferdinand and the Princess Maria Ricciarda Beatrice of Modena. It is in four movements and dates from Salzburg, May The first movement is in sonata form and begins surprisingly quietly, followed by a serene slow movement Andantino grazioso with muted strings.
The third movement is a Minuet and the symphony ends with a finale in sonata form, to parallel the opening. It is remarkable for the unquiet nature of its slow movement rather than the Haydenesque facility of its finale. This is a particularly agitated work with a remarkable, although short, slow movement and a dark and troubled Minuet, matched by a Trio section written for winds alone.
The first two works on this disc K and K are written in the style of Italian overtures. The latter work in particular, Symphony No. The companion work, Symphony No. Mozart composed his comic opera La finta giardiniera in Salzburg and Munich between and and its first performance took place in January that year. It was not a success, although recent revivals have found more in it than the original audience may have done. He revised the work into a German version Die Gaertnerin aus Liebe and took the overture and added a third movement to make up an independent, if somewhat lightweight, symphony Symphony in D K The final Allegro con spirito is one of those virtuosic movements that spells delight to the listener and a sense of alarm to the players.
The final work on this disc is the powerful Symphony No. The original plan was for three movements, but when he came to revise the work later in Vienna together with the subsequent Symphony No. The earlier of the two symphonies is scored in a simple manner with an orchestra of oboes, horns, bassoons and strings. The opening movement shows traces of Beethoven to come and the symphony as a whole was taken as something of a starting point by the younger composer for his own Symphony No. The Andante moderato second movement is written in E flat and represents a moment of restrained peace with a recapitulation that states its main themes in reverse order.
The opening Allegro is the same in form as the earlier work but the specific attempt at a French style has vanished and instead there is energy and playfulness, with an oscillation between C major, E minor and A flat major. The songlike Andante di molto that follows relies only on bassoons as its wind soloists whereas the final Presto is an expression of wit. The third movement Minuet, again added later in Vienna, shows Mozart writing particularly virtuosic sections for the Vienna wind players, while adding flute parts to the entire symphony.
Not only did Mozart move to Vienna and experience disagreements with his old patron, Archbishop Colloredo of Salzburg, premieres of two remarkable operas by him had also taken place. Idomeneo, performed in Munich, had somehow managed to redefine the old form of opera seria, while the Turkish comic fantasy of The Seraglio had received its first performance in July , establishing at once the success of the German Singspiel.
Mozart had created his first two stage masterpieces and his confidence in writing for the orchestra increased demonstrably, becoming ever more apparent in subsequent works. This was to be a symphony to celebrate the opening of the Corpus Christi celebrations, written in the current Parisian style for a large orchestra.
Paris was proud of its orchestra but Mozart did not arrive unprepared — he had already worked with the great orchestra in Mannheim and was ready for the demands of Parisian taste from exposure to the works of Stamitz and Gossec. There are certainly stretches of musical padding here and there, and it is significant that Mozart was deeply unsatisfied with the original slow movement so composed a second version as well as altering orchestration in the other movements. Whatever present day opinion of the work may be, Le Gros was pleased Mozart Complete Edition 5 and claimed the work to be the best of the symphonies written for his orchestra to date.
Mozart made two versions of his Symphony No. There is not one note too many, and the symphony contains a sense of almost violent despair, foreshadowing the developments of the Romantic era. The first version of the score is written for flute, oboes, bassoons and horns as well as the usual string band, the horns contributing a particularly aggressive tone to the music.
The earlier version is leaner, the later more fulsome, but the economy of material is apparent in both versions. The version presented on this disc is the original score without the later revisions and added clarinets. It is therefore perhaps a little strange that the symphony was actually completed in Vienna in December although Mozart performed it in Prague the following year and that its genesis is not a straightforward one.
Indeed, much of the opening material of the movement is firmly in the minor key. Mozart omits a Minuet movement and proceeds straight to the headlong Presto finale, with its emphasis on the wind section of the orchestra. Mozart arranged a series of Viennese subscription concerts in and it is likely that the three final symphonies were performed there at that time.
Mozart probably also performed the works whilst on tour in Germany the following year and must have revised them particularly the very different scoring of the two versions of K with specific orchestras in mind. This symphony reverts to the more usual fourmovement pattern with the reinstatement of a Minuet and trio for the third section. The opening Allegro is again preceded by a slow introduction and is notable for its singing legato theme. The slow movement is an Andante con moto in A flat major, a lyrical movement disturbed by great outbursts in related minor keys.
The conventional Minuet and trio that follows is notable not only for its tendency to sound somewhat like Schubert but also for the prominence of the clarinet parts in the trio section. It was unusual for Mozart to write symphonies in the summer months and the dates of the first performances of these works are unclear. As with the preceding symphonies, it was originally assumed that the final three masterpieces were never performed during his lifetime, but it is now thought to be likely that Mozart performed them during his Viennese subscription concerts of and on tour in Germany the following year.
Indeed, it was almost certainly with different orchestras in mind that Mozart made two versions of his Symphony No. The final work in this great trilogy of late symphonies is known today by the nickname given to it by the great impresario Johann Salomon, a patron of Haydn who had persuaded the older composer to travel with him to London, suggesting that Mozart should follow at a later date.
The grandeur of the music also reflects the political situation of the era, a time when Austria was at war with the Turks. Religious quotations within the symphony give the work a positive and triumphant attitude that is far removed from the questioning and neurotic despair that colours much of the previous symphony. Mozart had, by now, outgrown his own earlier style and forged a new type of music, looking towards Schubert and Beethoven rather than back to his revered master Haydn. Similarly, the counterpoint within the work is totally confident and fully integrated into the piece.
Nowhere in the history of music has a series of symphonic works ended with such a confident assertion of style and with such a revelation of an enduring masterpiece. Prior to keyboard concertos were by no means uncommon: With one exception K the orchestra gives a lengthy introduction to the work, quoting a number of different themes and preparing the listener for the entrance of the main instrument. Whilst hitherto the keyboard was almost treated as one of the orchestra, Mozart gave it some independence: To find this style took practice and it was not until the fifth numbered concerto K from that Mozart felt able to compose using his own original ideas.
Before that, at the suggestion of his father Leopold, he practiced for the genre by arranging the solo works of other composers for keyboard and small orchestra. Whilst in Berlin, Johann Christian became fascinated by Italian opera and he made plans to visit Italy at the earliest opportunity. After a period in Milan he studied with Padre Martini in Bologna. His operas composed for London and the Italian stages were highly successful, resulting in his own reputation exceeding that of his father at this time.
In April the Mozart family arrived in London as part of their European tour and Johann Christian Bach was immediately captivated by the precocious genius of young Wolfgang. Both musicians were set in friendly competition in public together and, in the eyes of many witnesses, the child often beat the man with his clever improvisations. In he was one of the first musicians in England to play the fortepiano in public and he almost certainly appreciated the dynamic and expressive capabilities of this instrument as opposed to the somewhat dry and monotonous tones of the harpsichord.
Indeed the pieces here arranged by Mozart were advertised upon publication in to be played on either harpsichord or fortepiano. Framed by these two movements is the stillness of the Larghetto, introduced by a few bars simply from the piano and then followed by an orchestral dialogue the textures then become richer as the soloist and orchestra take turns to embroider the basic fabric in one of the most uplifting slow movements. In fact, Mozart did probably conceive the early Concertos of K and the first four in the numbered sequence of the twenty seven major Concertos for a harpsichord.
The first early Concertos are all in major keys and follow a model of pastiche that stretches to the present in works as diverse as those by Stravinsky, Webern and Britten. Completed in , the third of the Piano Concertos K 40 is in D major and scored for an orchestra of oboes, horns, trumpets and strings. Based upon music Mozart would have encountered whilst travelling in Paris between and , for a time these four early Concertos were thought of as being original Mozart compositions.
Nevertheless, those trumpets and timpani do add a sense of brilliance to the Concerto in its full orchestral guise. The present disc contains three Concertos that represent very different aspects of these Concertos from the simplicity of the F major Salzburg Concerto, through the difficulties of the B flat major Concerto from that year of Mozart Complete Edition 7 and up to the undeniable masterpiece of the A major K Concerto, arguably the finest of all the Concertos. Having composed his E flat major Concerto K for his pupil Barbara Ployer, Mozart set about writing both a second Concerto for her K and two others exclusively for himself.
The whole project took no more than two months and Mozart was keen to add some rather more difficult and virtuoso passages for his own performance, particularly so in the B flat major Concerto K , dated 15th March which not only is intent on stretching its solo performer but is also scored for a relatively large orchestra. These difficulties are immediately apparent in the opening Allegro which is a surprisingly good natured and lively piece, despite its frequent recourse to the minor key. Taking its place as the first of a series of three Concertos beginning in December , the F major Concerto K is scored simply for strings and wind and is also available together with its two successors in an arrangement made by the composer himself for Piano and string Quartet.
This is the Mozart of geniality rather than the Mozart of genius, the composer appealing not only to the cognoscenti, but also to the general public although it is on record too that the Concerto made a distinct appeal to a person no less than the Emperor as well as providing a substantial income for the Academy. In the usual three movement form, the Concerto opens somewhat unusually with an Allegro in triple time before leading to an amiable, if hardly profound Larghetto, more of an Intermezzo than a true slow movement.
Although these are Concertos where Mozart is stretching his audience to an unprecedented degree, the A major work begins simply enough. The scoring lacks trumpets and timpani but still has a darker side to it that permeates the whole work. Unusually too, the Cadenza in this movement is incorporated in the full score.
The slow movement is an Adagio of quite unsurpassable emotion and beauty and stands as one of the finest single movements in any composition by Mozart; it is written in F sharp minor, the only time that Mozart used the key in any of the Concertos. That key has been hinted at in the opening Allegro, but here it has a sense of tragedy that can only be seen to express the most profound of sorrows.
That such deep sadness can be dispelled at all is quite amazing but the final Allegro assai manage a light heartedness and an exuberance that are not occasionally without a backward glimpse aimed towards a tinge of sadness beneath that apparent stream of joyous melody. The film in this case was the rather sentimental story of Elvira Madigan directed by the Swede Bo Widerberg. So well known did the slow movement of the Concerto become that since then the Concerto itself has on many occasions been given the subtitle Elvira Madigan.
The opening Allegro maestoso is permeated by a theme in March rhythm punctuated by fanfares in the winds and an affecting and simple second subject. After the usual orchestral introduction there is a particularly fine entrance for solo piano. The following Andante, mentioned above in the context of the film, bases a soaring almost vocal melody without words above a pizzicato string accompaniment. Finally, the Allegro Vivace is a good humoured Rondo taking in several changes of key before reaching its final Cadenza and Coda.
Written in Salzburg in April , the first of the Piano Concertos K37 is in F major and scored for oboes and horns with strings and a pianoforte or harpsichord. The Concerto is based upon music Mozart would have encountered whilst travelling in Paris between and The C major Andante is of unknown origin whilst the final Allegro is based on work by the Strasbourg based composer Leontzi Honauer.
It is fair enough to say that the C major Concerto K is the concluding work in the series of great Concertos composed between and After this there is a break in composition before the two final Concertos where Mozart concentrated on his final major Symphonies and the opera Don Giovanni. Indeed this Concerto was followed immediately by the Prague Symphony and the C major Quintet rather than any further Concertos. The C major is a suitably grand work related to its predecessor in the same key, K Again Mozart takes a March theme for his opening Allegro, a theme which enters in the minor key scored for the string section and flutes, oboes, bassoons and horns.
The mood of the movement is already symphonic, pointing forward to what was to follow. Finally, the concluding Rondo is a less exuberant piece than may normally have been expected at this point, more in a style of confident affirmation which at times becomes even stormy and agitated. Mozart has been accused of a degree of indifference at this point but this is hardly relevant in context of the drive and positive nature of the Concerto as a whole.
Whilst in London Wolfgang played alongside Johann Christian Bach, the most influential musician in Britain at that time. Both man and boy set each other tasks at improvisation and it was felt that Mozart consistently bettered the elder player. Johann Christian Bach held no grudge and the two became firm friends although they did not meet again until Mozart visited Paris in , at which time Bach was supervising the first performances of his opera Amadis. To give him practice in composing for orchestra, Leopold set young Wolfgang the task of arranging various piano sonatas by wellknown and respected composers of the time for solo keyboard and small orchestra.
It is scored for solo keyboard, two oboes, two horns and strings. Raupach, whose first and final movements from his Sonata op. His opera Alceste, produced the year in which he became Kapellmeister was one of the first successful Russian operas and its sombre style anticipated that of Gluck, whose own version of Alceste had such an overwhelming effect on Mozart in Vienna in For a short time Raupach left Russia and found work in Hamburg and Paris where he met and heard Mozart , returning to St Petersburg in However he failed to achieve the same success in that city as heretofore and he died there in relative obscurity.
Little is known of Schobart other than that he was in Paris in around and that he died in great agony alongside other members of his family having consumed poisoned mushrooms. The same musical forces are used for the other two concertos on this disc. She created such a sensation that Mozart named his Piano Concerto no.
A number of innovative effects set this concerto apart from other pieces composed before this time January Before the orchestra has finished its customary introduction one hears the piano trilling on a high B flat before launching into its own theme. The beautifully melancholic slow movement is in C minor the first Mozart concerto movement in a minor key and its form and character resemble a recitative and aria from an opera seria.
The exhilarating Rondeau finale changes gear suddenly to introduce a minuet passage with four variations. The Piano Concerto no. Mozart offered the scores for sale at the relatively high price of six ducats possibly due to the fact that a large debt was about to be called in and announced the imminent sale of arrangements for piano solo and string quartet thus making it possible for chamber groups and amateurs to play but was later forced to cut the price.
It must have been particularly galling for the composer to witness the firm of Artaria making a tidy profit on these concertos when they were published in As a tribute to Johann Christian Bach, who had died in , Mozart used a theme by his late friend in the Andante movement. These apprenticeship works cannot be dated with precise accuracy but it is thought that they were composed in about ie when the composer was about eleven years old.
Mozart learned much from the works of Johann Christian Bach, whom he met and accompanied in London. This style has been referred to as galant, music that is graceful, refined yet also spirited in the finale movements. Following these apprenticeship works there was a gap of a few years until December when Mozart produced his first keyboard concerto which did not stem from the work or works of other composers.
The concerto, known as the Piano Concerto no. The concerto reveals a certain amount of charm, but also demonstrates a lack of experience with scoring with often uneccessary doubling of parts the work is scored for two oboes, horns and trumpets with timpani and strings in addition to solo keyboard , although Mozart later remedied this to a certain extent by altering the wind parts.
Following its premiere in this new movement became hugely popular and Mozart chose to retain this later movement when the work came to be published in The bright and vivacious Piano Concerto no. This engaging work is clearly more sophisticated than its predecessor and one gains the impression that Mozart composed the piece as much to show off his skill at the keyboard as to entertain the public. And entertaining it certainly is, with delicacy and rhythmical brilliance marking the opening Allegro aperto movement, a tender and expressive Andante and a finale that was the first of many Rondo with variations Mozart used to close the concertos.
Following his precipitous move to the Austrian capital it did not take long for Mozart to discover the Viennese liking for technical brilliance and drama once he arrived in that city following his escape from the rather stifling atmosphere of Salzburg. Always someone that lived beyond his means, Mozart strived to make ends meet by appearing as often as possible in public showing off his formidable and inventive prowess at the keyboard.
Consequently piano concertos appeared thick and fast: This was truly a busy time for Mozart: He also found time to move house in Mozart Complete Edition 9 January of that year and again in September having just recovered from a kidney infection that laid him low for a few weeks. At the end of the year he joined the freemasons, presumably hoping to acquire important contacts. There is more drama in the second movement marked Andante following a contemplative beginning demonstrating the close stylistic link that Mozart displayed between his concertos and opera.
The Allegretto finale is a typically joyous Rondo with variations. Amazingly too, despite the closeness of composition, each of these works bears the stamp of its own originality. Scored for a relatively large orchestra including trumpets and timpani and with an accent on the wind soloists, the D major Concerto has a distinctly symphonic feel about it. The opening Allegro is a typical Mozartean March movement with an accent on the heroic mood but with an unusual and unexpected quiet section in its recapitulation. This is followed by a slow song like Andante with the added bonus of a final contrapuntal climax and then a Rondo marked Allegro di molto which initially appears to owe much to the spirit of Haydn but also contains a surprisingly serious development section.
This F major work was written for the composer himself to play and shows a progression of ideas and geniality throughout its three movements which makes it a particularly satisfying work taken as a whole. This proud and somewhat arrogant introductory movement prefaces the charming Allegretto in C major that follows. That final movement seems to act as a combination of Sonata form, Rondo and Fugue, all with hints of the genius of a Mozart comic opera.
Later as a young man he was to take commissions for his musical compositions from princes and noblemen, professional musicians and amateurs alike as well as still performing his own works. His life and work in Salzburg, the town of his birth were to be unhappy experiences, blighted by his dislike of the fractious Archbishop Colloredo, his main employer. It was there in the capital city of the Empire and centre of European culture that Mozart was to blossom and to find better fortune.
Vienna was in all respects unwilling to encourage any sort of revolutionary activity both in politics and the Arts but Viennese Society was ready to accept talent and to, if somewhat grudgingly, offer some sort of patronage to its most renowned musician. It would take Beethoven and his more aggressive stance to change the climate of things musical in the city but at least the atmosphere was conductive to Mozart producing some of his finest masterpieces to which the Piano Concertos composed between and are a major part.
The first of the Piano Concertos of was the famous D minor work, the first of any of the Concertos to be written in a minor key and the only one that remained popular throughout the nineteenth century. There is a new dynamic in the opening movement showing an antagonism between soloist and orchestra which would finally become the touchstone of works such as the Brahms Piano Concertos.
The final Allegro is both passionate and dramatic with much chromatic writing, full of pessimism until the key turns to the major and a glimpse of optimism. The E flat major Concerto K is somewhat rare among the cycle in that it is one of only three of the Concertos that substitutes clarinets for oboes and that it has a slow movement in the minor key. The lack of formality in this Concerto owes much to the opera The Marriage of Figaro on which Mozart was working at the same time.
This is a return to a simpler form of Concerto after Mozart perhaps feeling that his recent works had progressed a little too far away from the conservative tastes of his Viennese public. It is perhaps even fair to suggest that the opening and closing movements of the Concerto are somewhat backward looking and even routine. Routine is certainly not a word that could be used in connection with the central Andante in C minor which Mozart was obliged to repeat as an encore at his concert on 23rd December.
This is a mixture Mozart Complete Edition 10 of arioso and variation which also contrasts major and minor keys in a unique expression of sadness, despair and final consolation. From the clavichord he took the idea of the struck string and from the harpsichord the principle of dampers fitted with cloth. This aloud for a new range of dynamics ranging between piano and forte together with the idea of a pedal to dampen the sound. Those early instruments can be seen in the early pianoforte housed now in the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
These were then followed by the instruments of John Broadwood in England and those by the Brothers Erard of Strasbourg which were to combine the benefits of the English and German actions. This prototype was to be adopted under licence by firms such as Steinway, Bechstein and Pleyel.
P E Bach were writing for it in favour of the older instrument. In fact, Mozart wrote nearly all of his keyboard music for the piano as did Beethoven and by the beginning of the nineteenth century the harpsichord had become almost redundant for the contemporary composer. Of those Concertos, six date from including the B flat major Concert K Long considered to have been composed for the blind pianist, Maria Theresia Paradis, it is now certain that Mozart premiered the Concerto himself in Vienna in February The Concerto is in the conventional three movement form and opens with an Allegro Vivace that provides the main themes of the movement in its opening introduction, initially in the piano and then in the orchestra.
The development is littered with scale passages and gives way to an accompanied cadenza and a final recapitulation. The Andante which follows is a set of theme and five considerably elaborate variations and a Coda variations, all suffused with an element of anxiety and even despair. It is likely that the full version of the Concerto was written down by Johann Andre who published the first edition of the parts of the Concerto in These three Concertos, written in Vienna in , bear the consecutive numbers of K , K and K Nevertheless, this E flat Concerto is a rather unique entry in the Mozart catalogue.
Completed in , the fourth of the Piano Concertos K 41 is in G major and based upon music Mozart would have encountered whilst travelling in Paris between and As with many of the Piano Concertos and unlike those for Violin and Orchestra written much earlier, this was clearly a work written for Mozart himself and one that was introduced to the public without any undue former notice. The very opening of the initial Allegro sets a mood of sadness beneath the apparently normal surface of things and there are a number of rapid key changes and surprising dissonances, passages of chromatic intensity and an amazing clarity within the scoring.
Energy is surpressed within this opening Mozart Complete Edition 11 movement and even more so in the following Larghetto, an almost religious experience. The final Rondo too, marked as a conventional Allegro, has a quality about it which suggests not merely joyfulness but a feeling of resignation. Mozart found teaching irksome, but as his father Leopold never tired of reminding him, it was a necessary part of his daily routine, for it might lead to a lucrative commission. Indeed it is noticeable that Josepha was the poorer of the three players as her part scarcely tests the average concert pianist.
Mozart later rewrote the concerto for two soloists, presumably for his sister Nannerl and he to play, and this arrangement was in his repertoire following his arrival in Vienna in Just as this concerto does not place too many demands upon the players, neither does it place any great demands upon the listener; the most memorable section is the middle movement with its light accompaniment and amiable interplay between the soloists.
There is evidence that the Concerto for Two Pianos in E flat K, usually dated January , might predate the Concerto for Three Pianos as the cadenzas for K were written on similar paper used by Mozart for works known to date from between August and January The scoring is more adventurous in this work, two bassoons being added to his regular forces of two oboes and horns plus strings.
Following his arrival in Vienna in Mozart expanded the scoring still further, adding a pair of clarinets and trumpets and timpani to the fast outer movements. Of particular interest is the Allegro Rondo finale whose main theme takes a different harmonic turn at each appearance. In this instance Mozart did not merely rescore the work, he substituted an entire movement. He introduced this new finale at the Burgtheater on 3 March at a concert which also included newly composed music for Idomeneo and an improvised fantasy for piano solo.
The Rondo K successfully gave the Concerto in D a new lease of life and when the concerto came to be published, Mozart chose to include the Rondo rather than the original finale. At one concert during the Lent season in Mozart was asked to repeat the Rondo and this movement has become hugely popular being performed by itself as often as it is included within the concerto setting. The scoring for solo piano, flute, two oboes, two horns, two trumpets, timpani and strings is imaginative throughout and the melodies are memorable.
Often linked with the Piano Concerto in A K , it has long been considered to have been the original finale to that work since it shares not only the temperament of the surviving finale but also its key and time signature. The Rondo was then arranged for piano solo by Cipriani Potter in as the various leaves of the original were scattered. It is scored for piano solo, two oboes, two horns, strings and cello obbligato.
Short in years perhaps, but this was a career that produced an almost incredibly large number of works, many of which are undoubted masterpieces. It is to that category of superlatives that the clarinet concerto belongs. Not surprisingly, the Concerto bears many similarities to the earlier Quintet composed for Stadler, although the later work expresses the lyrical ideas in a more dramatic and fuller fashion whilst still maintaining the closest of relationships between the soloist and the orchestra.
The final movement is a joyful Rondo although nowhere does Mozart allow himself to resort to virtuosity for the sake of outward show. Mannheim was the reason for the composition to commission of the flute concerto in G K whilst in Paris he set about work on a Sinfonia Concertante for four professional wind players Wendling, Ramm, Ritter and Punto intended for performance at the Concerts Spirituels in that city.
The work is, perhaps necessarily, simple in its technical demands and somehow typical of the French style whilst remaining suitable for the settings envisaged for its performance. The Flute and Harp Concerto follows the usual three movement pattern and is scored for a small orchestra including oboes and horns. Although Mozart is on record as considering the young Duchess to be somewhat stupid and lazy, he produced a subtle combination of the two instruments, never drowned by the orchestra whether intertwining their own melodies or playing against the full tutti.
The original cadenzas for the work have been, unfortunately, lost but there is enough charm and an abundance of light themes to ensure the opening Allegro makes its gracious effect. The following Andantino is scored against divided violas and with the absences of the horns and oboes but maintaining a rich and sensuous atmosphere. Finally, the concluding Rondeau is in typical French style in the tempo of a courtly Gavotte. For many consecutive years the demand for compositions for the flute were so great that composers as well as publishers often remarked that pieces written for other instruments could also be adapted for flute.
Mozart met one of these flute lovers when he stopped in Mannheim between the end of October and the middle of March , when he undertook his journey to Paris. In a letter to his father in Salzburg, he informed him of the commission from the Dutchman Ferdinand Dejean who gave him Guilders to write ''3 small, light and short concertos and a pair of quartets for the flute". But Mozart didn't like the flute very much, perhaps because of the frequent fluctuations in intonation. Besides that, because he was at that time head over heels in love with the singer Aloysia Weber, he didn't have much time to think of music.
Researchers still wonder today if Mozart actually composed a flute concerto for Dejean in Mannheim. But with the Concerto in G major K there's a slight problem. And so it's probable that Mozart delivered existing rearranged or copied concertos or scores to Ferdinand Dejean. The only composition certainly from the time he spent in Mannheim is the Andante in C major K In this respect they are very different from the Piano and Violin Concertos. That being said, the earlier Concertos all have something individual to say for themselves and occasionally reach considerable peaks of inspiration.
The grumbling, growling giant can, however, be an affectionate and witty instrument and that is how Mozart obviously sees it. It is significant too, that despite his less than conventional choice of solo player, the Concerto has something about it that shows the piece is throughout conceived only for the Bassoon with its own very definite characteristics. Mozart did later write a bassoon sonata for his friend as well as several piano pieces including three of his Concertos.
When Mozart reached Mannheim at the end of October, he met the oboist Friedrich Ramm and made a present of the new Concerto to Ramm, who immediately took up the new work and played it several times. Although plans were afoot for at least two further Oboe Concertos, both to be in F major, only fragments of those works exist and thus the C major Concerto is the only completed one for the instrument. The Concerto is in the standard three movement form with an Andante at the centre of the opening Allegro and concluding Rondo.
Bach produced many such works, Mozart moved away from the form towards Concertos for solo instruments. These were musicians at the Mannheim Court except for Punto who was a travelling player. This original version is unfortunately lost and the work is now known in its version for Oboe and Clarinet instead of Flute and Oboe.
Of a virtuoso kind with prominent attention given to the soloists, it lies somewhere between a Concerto and a Symphony with obbligato. The highlight of the piece comes in the slow movement but the final set of ten connected variations including one for each of the solo instruments is the display point of the work. His style is repellent and always hopping to different beats. The temple hornist weeps, extracts the notes from the depths of his soul and also, with his breath, inspires the entire instrumental accompaniment. In the concert hall and the opera house the hornist can be made to produce innumerable expressive effects.
He is equally effective at a distance and close up. Nothing is more capable or skilful than the horn at echo effects. Therefor the study of this instrument is highly recommended for a composer. When Mozart was young, this famous or infamous horn virtuoso was employed by the Hofkapelle in Salzburg; later he settled in Vienna, where he tried to combine his work as a freelance hornist with running a cheese shop.
Here Mozart met him again, in March For instance, the manuscript of the concerto in E flat major, K , contains the following rather unflattering dedication: For the concerto in E flat major, K , which Mozart listed in his own catalogue of works on 26th June , he used four different colors of ink as a joke: The pieces were often written on loose, probably spare pages in heavily compressed handwriting, and the two violin parts are often notated on one line.
Indications of articulation and even tempo are often missing. The numerous points of harmonic, melodic and structural correspondence between the horn concertos suggest that Mozart did not take this genre especially seriously. Long passages from the concertos in E flat major, K and K , were missing, and these could only be reconstructed with great difficulty on the basis of the existing, far from reliable copies.
As for the concerto in D major, K , Mozart only left the opening Allegro and a score sketch of a rondo finale. He not only took no notice of the original accompaniment but also replaced the original middle section by a paraphrase of the Gregorian melody to the laments of Jeremiah, which are sung on Good Friday. This fragment comprises an almost completely scored orchestral introduction as well as the beginning of a solo section of which, however, only the first bars possess an accompaniment.
It is possible that the pages have been lost before , but it seems more plausible that Mozart himself, upon closer consideration, laid the work aside. An introductory ritornello on such a grand scale implied a major concerto with a total duration of about half an hour — and, in view of the possibilities of the natural horn of the period, would have been almost an impossible task both for the composer and also for the hornist.
Whether the hornist in question was Leutgeb or someone else can no longer be determined. A large number of these often very short fragments have only come to light in recent decades. The Rondo, K , was also for a long time not as complete as was generally imagined. Not until did a sheet containing four pages of score come to light, including the sixty missing bars, which belonged with the first of the four sheets that had always been known.
Its musical content differs markedly from that of the later concertos: The solo part, which sounds thin on the natural horn, seems especially odd, as it contains a series of demanding stopped notes which are not found in the later horn concertos which were certainly written for Leutgeb.
Whatever the truth may be, Mozart probably lost touch with Lang in Vienna, and the solo part of this unfinished concerto was evidently totally unsuited to Leutgeb. On the basis of analyses of similar passages in other works of Mozart, I have attempted to work up all of these fragments into playable, practical versions, so that they are accessible not only for musicologists but for any music lover. The preserved fragments of K b were placed in order, the missing sections were reconstructed though the development section, which is mostly missing, could only be completed in a very hypothetical manner and, together with the Rondo, K , the piece was orchestrated in a style similar to that of the opera Idomeneo from the same period.
The fragment in E major was rounded off in the manner of the familiar Mozart concertos. Of course such reconstructions, or completions, can never bear comparison with genuine compositions of Mozart. As well as a series of Violin Sonatas, he composed a Sinfonia Concertante one of his great masterpieces for Violin and Viola, a Concertone for two violins, several movements for solo violin and orchestra within his Serenades and the five indisputable Concertos.
The five Concertos and particularly the last three are not only a milestone of the form of the time but also standard works of the present day repertoire. Generally considered to have been written in one spurt of energy between April and December in , it is now thought that the first of the series may well date from as early as , the same time as the Concertone mentioned above and thus making the maturity of the first of the Concertos an even more remarkable feat of technical command. Mozart had become Leader or Concert Master of the orchestra of Archbishop Colloredo of Salzburg in November , a position he would come to dislike because of his dislike of the somewhat tetchy Archbishop himself.
The position meant that he would have been expected to write something for his own instrument whilst in service. By the time he set about composing the Concertos, Mozart would have known the violin compositions of Locatelli and Tartini as well as other composers he had encountered on his trips to Italy and these influences can certainly be found in the first of the Concertos in B flat K As in the remaining Concertos, this piece eschews any elements of virtuosity for their own sake and concentrates on a more serious ideal even though the ideas contained in the work may not be especially originally or indeed Mozartian in themselves.
If the new evidence, based on paper dating, places the first Concerto now in , then two years followed before Mozart wrote his second Concerto K in D major, a long gap considering that all the remaining Concertos would be written in such a short space of time. However, this D major Concerto shows a marked advance on its predecessor in that it ends with a Rondo or French Rondeau in its original version. Despite that, the opening movement Allegro still owes much to Haydn and lacks totally memorable thematic material. The following Andante also seems less imaginative than the comparable movement in the earlier work and is little more than a simple song from a light opera with a very straightforward accompaniment, more in the style of some of the earlier Italian Concertos Mozart would have made his acquaintance with.
But it is the final movement that points to the later Rondos of the composer. The soloist opens the movement and then the orchestra recapitulates that beginning and there follows sections in the minor key and in more vigorous mood, all dealing with fresh originality each time the theme appears. It is however, with the third of the Concertos that Mozart seems to reach technical and artistic maturity in the form.
Despite the same simple accompaniments and the lack of virtuosity, this time the piece sounds like Mozart and nobody else. The early stylistic borrowings have gone and the composer has found his own inimitable voice. The third Concerto K was completed on September 12th and is in the key of G major. There is a new sort of interplay now between the soloist and orchestra and after the opening Allegro with its recapitulation prefaced by a fine recitativo passage. There comes a particularly beautiful Adagio which seems to borrow from the French style of the time.
This French aspect again comes to the fore in the final Rondo all the later Concertos now end with a Rondo movement where passages in various tempi alternate. A lively moment in three to the bar quavers is interrupted by an Andante in G minor which then leads to an Allegretto section in G major. Mozart has found his inspiration and the G major Concerto is one of the highlights of the set which will lead to still greater things and the undoubted masterpieces of the final two Concertos.
In fact, it is fairly certain that most of the E flat Concerto was written by a young Munich violinist, Johann Friedrich Eck, working from some tentative sketches by Mozart of the outer movements.. Mozart had become Leader or Concert Master of the orchestra of Archbishop Colloredo of Salzburg in November , a post he would come to dislike because of the somewhat tetchy Archbishop himself. The position meant that he would be expected to write something for his own instrument whilst in service. By the time he set about composing the Concertos, Mozart would have known the violin compositions of Locatelli and Tartini as well as other composers he had encountered on his trips to Italy.
The five Concertos indisputably by Mozart are generally considered to have been written in one spurt of energy between April and December in , although it is now thought that the first of the series may well date from as early as , the same time as the Concertone for two violins. It is with the third Concerto K in G major that Mozart seems to reach technical and artistic maturity in the form. In spite of simple orchestral accompaniments and the lack of virtuosity typical of all the Concertos, this is obviously the work of Mozart and nobody else. The element of stylistic identity applies equally to the fourth and fifth Concertos, both on an equally high level of inspiration, if not even greater.
The Concerto is in the usual three movement form with a cadenza at the end of the first movement. The opening begins forcefully with a solemn orchestral prelude but the soloist soon adds playfulness and wit to his repertoire. The violin takes up the opening theme and weaves a plaintive melody over the subdued orchestral accompaniment.
Finally, a Rondo movement in the French style ends the Concerto as customary in Mozart Complete Edition 15 these works. The final Concerto K is in A major and was completed in December The Concerto is also noteworthy for the extra emphasis Mozart gives here to his orchestral accompaniment. There is an interplay between March rhythms and a more down to earth atmosphere. In addition, he composed several Concertos for solo wind instruments and a group of Concertante works for various combinations of instruments, a development of similar works that had been popular particularly with the Italian Baroque School composers such as Vivaldi.
That Mozart then decided not to complete any further Violin Concertos may seem strange in the light of the success of these five works and also the fact that he was a competent Violinist himself. There are indeed sketches for two further Concertos which have been expanded into full works but remain of dubious provenance.
However, one great masterpiece was still to come and that is the Sinfonia Concertante K for Violin and Viola which Mozart wrote some four years later in Salzburg and which arguably stands as his finest work to date. A previous work with the same title had been written by Mozart in in the Mannheim style for a combination of flute, oboe, horn and bassoon as well as a Concerto for Flute and Harp in effect another Sinfonia Concertante written in the same year.
These preparatory works, attractive as they are give little indication of the subtleties and depths of feelings that Mozart would uncover in his later work for the two stringed instruments. It is also worth mentioning that although a much inferior work, Mozart envisaged a Concerto for two Pianos written for himself and his sister at the same time and in the same key of E flat major K as a companion piece to the Sinfonia.
Finally, the Presto that rounds off the work is marked to be played in the tempo of a Contradanse. Also, the Viola part is written to be tuned half a tone up. Hardly in the same league as the great E flat work, the earlier Concertone or, literally Large Concerto K dates from May and features two violins as soloists together with oboe and cello and an orchestra which features divided violas. The piece is full of lively imagination and is a remarkable achievement for a boy of only seventeen.
Both Mozart and his father, Leopold, were pleased with the piece and it was performed in London and in Paris. The work is, as usual, in the three movements typical of the Concertos of the time. It opens with a lively fast movement where the relative absence of the cello is somewhat noteworthy. This is then followed by an Andante grazioso where the four instruments become a quartet against the orchestra and finally, a quick Minuet style movement rounds off the work.
The Concertone is obviously an immature work in comparison to the later Violin Concertos or the Sinfonia Concertante, but it does show Mozart handling and developing the old forms of the Concerti Grossi of a composer like Corelli with imagination and technical confidence. There is no sharp dividing line between these genres, although Divertimenti were generally meant for performance by a relatively small ensemble, while the other terms could imply orchestral performance.
Moments of dramatic tension, as they so often appear in symphonies or quartets, are absent, save for a few exceptions. The key of D major is dominant. In general, these were depressing years for the ever ambitious and energetic Mozart, who at an early age had visited the major courts and capitals of Europe. He realized that the cultural climate in his native city was anything but beneficial for an artist of his calibre, and he felt that in the provincial Salzburg his talent was stifled. Opportunities for exposing his skills were indeed limited and Mozart longed for the outside world.
He was chained however to his routine activities in the chapel. Nevertheless, he succeeded in creating a balance between grace and decorum on one side, and subtle innovations on the other, and these artistic challenges resulted in a stylistic conglomerate that was to fascinate both Liebhaber musical amateurs and Mozart Complete Edition 16 Kenner musical connoisseurs.
An important formal procedure for bridging these different levels was the regular introduction of concertante writing. It seems that he did not. A characteristic device was the introductory movement, which was generally in march rhythm; in many cases this opening was repeated at the end of the work. In some cases however a second minuet was inserted after the slow movement. Mozart felt free from tradition, in this respect, and the same was true for the way he designated his works. Such works were traditionally labelled Finalmusik, a term that was often used by both Mozart and his father.
Both are of modest dimensions and have prominent passages for wind instruments. A more sophisticated Finalmusik was K. It has a richer sound, with horns and trumpets, and some of the eight movements have solo passages for a violin. This festive work was written in Vienna, where Mozart and his father were seeking employment, but in vain. Also belonging to the Finalmusik genre is the Serenade in D major, K.
It consists of eight movements, of which the second and the fourth have concertante writing for a solo violin. There are three minuets, as well as a long Andante sixth movement , where Mozart reaches the artistic level of his symphonies. The finale is a gay Presto. Five years later Mozart composed again a Finalmusik. He commenced it after his return from the devastating journey to Mannheim and Paris. This Serenade in D major, K. The orchestra is massive, with strings, flutes, oboes, bassoons, horns, trumpets and timpani, and Mozart makes full use of the many coloristic opportunities.
The third and fourth movements have passages for paired wind instruments and in the trio of the second minuet there is a part for a corno di posta, hence the nickname Posthornserenade for this work. This was most probably a joke by Mozart, who wanted to remind the university students that their term was over and that they would soon be home again with their parents. Maybe Mozart liked to demonstrate here that music and science were interrelated. Concertante writing Mozart was a great composer, but he was also a performing musician of great skill.
It may be assumed that at some occasions Mozart played the solo passages of his Serenades himself. Such passages may occur in any movement, but especially in the initimate trios of minuets. The Divertimento in B flat major, K. No doubt it was Leopold who stimulated his son to combine his creative and reproductive talents. Other works with a florid violin part are the Divertimento in D major, K.
The Haffnerserenade was a work of a boy still in his teens. He was unsurgent, resulting from the annoying work in the chapel of Sauschwanz Colloredo, but this did not prevent him to compose works of breathtaking originality.
