Sonata for Piano 4-Hands, K. 381/123a: Sinfonietta

Description

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) composed the SONATA FOR PIANO 4-HANDS IN D MAJOR, K. 381/123a in 1772. The absence of dynamic markings has led scholars to conclude that the piece was likely written for harpsichord. Due to its contrasts, which hint at the dialogue that takes place among the sections of an orchestra, it has been suggested to resemble a three-movement Italian symphony. Lorinc Kesztler arranged the work as a SINFONIETTA for string orchestra, presented in this Kalmus edition. Instrumentation: String Orchestra (8-8-3/5-5-5) (Vn3 sub. fFor Va). Reprint edition.
