| Added by alastair-lewis, 10 Mar 2012 The duration of this duet for violin and piano is around 4 minutes. The time signature is 3/4 and the tempo is Allegretto. The piece is in the key of F major, in the first minuet there is a modulation to the subdominant key of Bb major at bar 9. Stylistically the first minuet has lots of staccato, whereas the second minuet has more of a legato style. There is a pleasant arpeggiated accompaniment in the second minuet which begins at bar 43. This is a free sheet music for violin and piano duet. From his earliest childhood Mozart's prodigious musical abilities were evident. By the age of 5 years he had already begun composing. He played the violin and keyboard and performed before European royal families. Mozart was employed as a court musician in Salzburg when he was 17 years of age, he was however not content with this position travelled abroad in search of better opportunities. He eventually settled in the capital of Austria, Vienna, where he achieved fame but little financial security. He composed many of his best known music whilst living in this city, music which included symphonies, concertos and operas. Joseph Haydn wrote of Mozart that "posterity will not see such a talent again in 100 years." | |||
