Description

This volume presents the complete scores for three rondòs composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's: "Rondò K. 485", "Rondò K. 494", and " Rondò K. 511". Although Mozart was not the first composer to use the rondò, he was arguably the most significant, redefining and adding depth to the form through the creation of smooth transitions between the fast and slow sections. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 - 1791) was an extraordinarily prolific and seminal composer during the Classical era. He displayed astonishing musical ability from a very early age, composing and playing competently when just five years old. During his lifetime, Mozart composed over 600 original works, many of which are considered to be the apex of symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral music. The "Piano Sonata No. 16 in C major, K. 545" was described by Mozart as a piece "for beginners," and it is sometimes referred to as "Sonata facile" or "Sonata semplice". Featuring large, clear note heads and wide margins, this edition is perfect for studying and following the music, and it is not to be missed by collectors. Classic Music Collection constitutes an extensive library of the most well-known and universally-enjoyed works of classical music ever composed, reproduced from authoritative editions for the enjoyment of musicians and music students the world over.
