      Let's remember that his father was around teaching him how to compose etc. Mozart didn't get a chance to play like other kids. So it clearly stuck to him. Even if it came with several traumas that haunted him over his short life.
      I'm not saying that Mozart didn't compose those songs, but his father definitely showed the foundations and gave corrections as he was composing.

    • @oliverlacota3112
      @oliverlacota3112 Місяць тому +1

      ​@@rumplstiltztinkerstein Big this. He opened with an Alberti bass and then swapped to broken chords, then pivoted into counterpoint. All three are quite straightforward compositional techniques (maybe not so much for counterpoint, but Mozart was using it in a very simplified call-and-answer style in that piece rather than true harmonising counterpoint, so so it was still comparatively easy).

  • @axljohnamora7324

      @caterscarrots3407 11 місяців тому +6

      Yes. His late works foreshadow middle period Beethoven in many respects. His C minor sonata has parts that resemble 2 Beethoven sonatas. Opening resembles Piano Sonata no. 1 in F minor with that Mannheim Rocket. But there's plenty of Pathetique Sonata resemblances in there as well such as how both third movements end in an energetic C minor outburst or the C Bb Eb start to the Pathetique Sonata second movement also appearing in the Mozart second movement.
      And his 39th symphony in Eb resembles the Eroica symphony, not just cause of the Eb major key, but also the minor key appearance in the second movement, F minor in the case of Mozart, C minor in the Beethoven. And there's other resemblances to Eroica as well.
      And his 40th symphony Minuet more resembles a Beethoven Scherzo in the first part with the hemiola(duple feel even though it's in 3/4) and fast tempo, whereas the second part is more your typical Classical Era Trio section with very much a minuet feel to it. This Scherzo-like feel in something not titled Scherzo though is by no means unique to Mozart, Haydn did it too in his well known Gypsy Rondo(which is a movement of one of his piano trios).
      And Mozart's 41st symphony has a motivic resemblance to one of the most famous Beethoven pieces ever, the Fifth Symphony. Short short short long rhythm in both as a motive. But Mozart uses the ascending scale form in the first movement and the repeated note form in the fourth movement whereas with Beethoven, it's the other way around. And Mozart's is all bright and joyful(even the minor key moments are not so dramatic in the Mozart like how they tend to be in Beethoven) whereas Beethoven's is dark and dramatic. But the Fate Motif rhythm can be found in both.
      Those are just some of the more obvious Mozart/Beethoven resemblances, there's more that aren't so obvious.

    Thank you for this compilation. As much as I've always loved Mozart, I never followed his work in terms of how old he was when he wrote it. To hear the progression like this just adds another layer to his brilliance, and even as he was a savant at such a young age.... he still managed to mature in his compositions as he got older. What a tremendous loss to the music world that he passed so young. I wonder if his contemporaries ever knew just how lucky they were to hear him as he was building this incredible body of work.

      @voiceover2191 10 місяців тому

      The playfulness is certainly a component in many pieces, but as he got older his work became less frivolous, deeper and more serious. My favourite piece is the wind quintet from 1784 (yes, I looked up the year ;), it's truly sublime, the slow movement of the 23th piano concerto always gives me chills or his freemason music. I have to admit there's also many many works that I find very forgettable, just because it is Mozart to me that does not mean that therefore by default I should consider them all masterpieces. The only composer I have that with, even though he's not my favourite, would be Bach.

      Not sure about Mozart's pieces, but when it comes to J.S. Bach, they're numbered not in order of release, but in order of their "BWV" that was defined by the person who catalogued Bach's works. Maybe the same happened here? Or there there is simply an inconsistency regarding these pieces' release dates - which is quite common, to be fair.

At the same time he produced his 9th Opera, La finta giardiniera, which had its first performance on 13 January at the Salvatortheater. Mozart turned 19 two weeks after this.

    What I find facsinating is how you can hear how his understanding of his own music grows over the years. Too me Mozart almost always has something "playful" in his compositions. In his child years it is there just to be playful, for its own merrit. And it is still there in the later pieces, from 18years and forward, but it becomes more conceptualised and selfaware as he developes his style and blends it with more serious undertones and counterparts.

    As he gets older, the symmetry becomes less obvious but is still there. The music is not much more complex, but the structure is not so obviously discernible. The phrasing becomes longer and it really feels like he writes with more intimate emotion rather than the mathematical obsession off his early years. It seems like as a child he fell in love with the intellectual side of music, but as he grew, he fell in love with the music itself

But all through you get the sense of joy. Or at least curiosity.

    Very interesting to see the evolution of his work. Many of his pieces were of a similar nature up until his 20s. Then all of sudden he wrote some slower and more emotional pieces which I prefer. His happy crescendos are impressive but the emotion he could relate with a slower piece is just magnificent. Its also interesting to see he rarely used the entire 88 keys preferring to stick near the middle of the piano, I wonder if it was just easier to play more complex pieces without trying to stretch your arms to far in either direction. Either way it's very impressive.
