In other words, all nine musicians share in the solo parts equally.
A harpsichord and a violone a very large viola da gamba or double bass fill out the continuo. In the last movement the violone joins the three cellos in unison throughout. The most unusual aspect of this concerto is the absence of a slow, middle movement.

In when Mozart finally broke with the Archbishop — whose aide kicked Mozart down the stairs — he left for Vienna for good. Already by , Mozart was apparently quite negligent about his violin playing and possibly wrote the concertos for one of his friends, the court violinist Antonio Brunetti, whose abilities were limited, or for Franz Kolb, another Salzburg violinist and family friend.
After Mozart occasionally performed them himself. These were relatively modest concertos by a youthful master, written at a time when the popularity of virtuoso violin concertos had gone into decline. Mozart left no cadenzas for the concertos; most players either write their own or borrow one from the pen of any number of great violinists.
