| Q. | Which is the hardest piece written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart? | Related Search:
Classical | | | What is Mozart's most virtuosic and difficult piano piece?
Of the multitude of music Mozart wrote for the piano, which would you say is the hardest?
| | A. | To be fair, 'all of them' is really not a bad summary of affairs at all... :-)
However, Mozart himself, in a letter of 1784 to his father Leopold, singled out two concertos of the six written that year -- those in Bb (K450) and D (K451) -- as being ones 'that make me sweat', and not many players familiar with them would be inclined to disagree. I might even add the pocket battleship of an Eb major concerto that immediately preceded these two (K449): its innocent face deceptive, it's considerably more treacherous than meets the eye.
All the best, | | | |

Classical | | | Mozart's music...
| | A. | I shall take a look at the Mozart piano sonatas, which I happen to have before me. In his F major sonata, K. 280, all of the movements are in sonata form. This may have been the inspiration for Mendelssohn to do the same in his Scottish Symphony.
In his G major sonata, K. 283, Mozart wrote an extra theme in the exposition of the first movement and a development theme in the third movement. Beethoven wrote both extra exposition themes and a development theme in his Eroica Symphony.
The first movement of his D major sonata, K. 311 recapitulates the themes in reverse order, thereby resulting in what is called the "mirror form." This form became popular among Twentieth Century composers.
The C major sonata, K. 330 and the F major sonata, K. 332 also have development themes.
In the A major sonata, K. 331, a theme and variations is substituted for the usual sonata movement. This could be where Beethoven got the idea for his Ab major sonata, op. 26.
In the Bb major sonata, K. 570, the second theme is derived from the first theme. This could be where Beethoven got the idea for the Appassionata Sonata.
In his later concertos, specifically his d minor piano concerto, Mozart began the solo entrance with an extra solo theme.
The public was not ready for any innovations on the sonata form, so Mozart lost popularity in his later years. | | | |
