The final
movement of the Sonata in
A major K. 331 by
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart,
the Rondo Alla Turca, is
one of the most famous
pianopieces of all. Once
reserved for all music
connoisseurs, later
played by every piano
student, its opening
melody, alienated like a
sine tone, is now
omnipresent even as a
mobile phone ringtone.
The arrangement by Fazil
Say, created as an
effective encore, builds
on this popularity.
Mounted on the still
recognizable classic
basic level, typical jazz
elements such as
syncopation of the top
tones and embellishment
with chromatic blue
notes, embedded in
sometimes frenzied chains
of sixteenth notes, are
found - after the first
eight bars have been
presented originally. In
accordance with the
improvisational
character, Say himself
likes to perform his Alla
Turca Jazz in other
combinations, for example
with the accompaniment of
jazz singers or with an
orchestra. Perhaps it is
surprising that Fazil
Say, who was born in
Turkey and lives there
when not on tour, does
not trace Mozart's
adaptation of genuinely
Turkish music closer to
its origins, since many
of his compositions such
as Black Earth or the
Violin Sonata are
characterized by a subtle
touch Combination of
classic-romantic
tradition, Turkish folk
music and jazz elements.
In another Mozart
arrangement, the ballet
music Patara, which
premiered in Vienna in
2006, but now composed on
the rococo-esque (and
almost equally popular)
theme from the first
movement of the same A
major sonata, Say still
has the connection denied
to the Alla Turca, albeit
inthe opposite direction.
In distinctive chamber
music instrumentation,
the piano stands for
Western culture, the ney
flute for that of the
Orient, atmospherically
conveyed by sparse
percussion and vocalises
by a soprano.

This
series of easy piano
music for teaching
purposes presents pupils
in the lower and lower
middle grades with a
carefully chosen
selection of well-known
and lesserknown
compositions by important
masters. The volumes are
deliberately kept small
in extent, since it is
more stimulating for
children to change the
teaching material
frequently. In his last
years, Mozart composed a
large number of German
Dances for orchestra.
This music for daily use
of the time - intended
functionally, for dancing
and entertainment - is
distinguished by
enchanting ideas and
simple textures. The
editor has tried to cany
over the instrumental
subtleties into the
piano-duet writing. These
dances are particularly
suitable for introducing
some relaxation into the
learning of the piano,
for the interpretative
and technical workingout
demanded by Mozart's
original piano-duet works
is not required to the
same degree here. The
marks of expression have
been taken over from the
original score and in
part supplemented. Notes
not marked otherwise are
to be played non legato.
The technical difficulty
of these pieces
corresponds roughly to
the third and fourth year
of study. Heinz Walter,
Salzburg, Spring
1977.
