Mozart: Piano Transcriptions of Orchestral Dances
Catalog Number: 8.574582
The music on this recording was written between 1772 and 1782, largely during Mozart’s difficult time in Salzburg employed as Konzertmeister under the regime of Prince-Archbishop Colloredo. Transcribed for keyboard from orchestral originals by Mozart himself, these dances were composed as part of his court duties and they reflect both the tastes of the day, and Mozart’s facility in refining popular genres into stylish pieces with his typical grace and panache. As an exception, the March No. 1 in C major was mentioned by Mozart’s widow Constanze as a piece ‘my husband of blessed memory composed for me’.
