Description by Brian Robins [-]
At the end of July, 1783, Mozart took his wife Constanze to Salzburg to introduce her to his father Leopold and sister Nannerl, remaining there three months. During the course of the visit, Mozart composed two duos for violin and viola (the other being K. 424 in E flat), his only works for this combination. According to Constanze Mozart, both were composed on the behalf of Mozart's friend Michael Haydn, the underrated composer brother of Joseph Haydn. Michael Haydn had accepted commission from his (and Mozart's former) employer, the Archbishop of Salzburg, for a set of six duos, but fell ill after composing only four. Mozart, who respected Michael Haydn as a composer, stepped into the breach to allow his friend to meet his deadline. The grateful Haydn is said to have retained the manuscripts as a sacred relic.
Suggestions that Mozart deliberately imitated Haydn's style are perhaps somewhat fanciful. Mozart's interest in the unusual form prompted him to produce two masterpieces whose contrapuntal mastery and richness of texture clearly stem from the experience gained in the near-contemporary composition of the first three of the set of six string quartets dedicated to Joseph Haydn. Interestingly, Mozart did not completely relinquish these duos to Michael Haydn -- in two letters sent to his father after returning home, he requests that the duos be sent to him in Vienna, along with the score of his opera Idomeneo.
Like its companion, K. 423 is cast in three movements, in this instance in the sequence Allegro, Adagio, Rondeau.

Same.
Grace Hofer Yeah... this is WAY to advanced for me.
When you realize you don't have any friends.
@@elijahminiuk2058 story of my life 😭😭😭 I just do solos now 😭😂😭💀
@@elijahminiuk2058 when you realize you have no friends cause you play the viola.
The impecable quality of Grumiaux playing……..
11:54 Did anyone had goosebumps at this point? it reminds me of his other symphonies! so cool!!
this piece represent the union between two great friends, at least for me
As a violist, I say thank you Herr Mozart! You the man.
Professional concert level retired violist here. WOW! I love this performance. I have performed these many times! They never get old and lovely t and fun to play.
My best friend plays viola and I play violin, I'm currently composing a duet and wish to play duets with him, it's cool you've performed duets
3:30 is unbelievably beautiful, I repeated that part so many times already. That is the definition of "question and answer", absolute harmony.
The adagio is so beautiful.
Grumiaux's Mozart works set a model for all violinists.
The best recording ever
The adagio is as lovely a piece as he ever penned. Odd that I never heard the duets before. It has been a wonderful experience discovering what he could do with so few instruments. They are worthy to stand alongside his finer quartets.
Perfect music for a Saturday morning coffee break :)
1:54 love the voicing in this measure. Same with 2:56
This is delightful! I like this so much more than the overplayed Duo Concertante! Thank you for posting!
O my god, the Adagio...
perfect!!
Savez-vous que Mozart a composé ces six duos en signant Michael Haydn alors que celui-ci était malade et l'évêque Colloredo exigeait que cet œuvre soit terminé un jour précis. Quelle belle preuve d'amitié !
Something about mozart's voicing in the measures in 0:23 and 1:26 just makes me smile and I'm not sure what it is lol
This is wonderful
wow this is just sooo good.
고맙습니다
this is some next level shit
That adagio though
Section A has nearly 142 measures! Pure genius
New to me, very enjoyable. The notes about the history are fascinating, I had read of the close friendship between Mozart and JMH.
Who is JMH?
Johann Michael Haydn.
Me: slows down tempo
Sincerely, we commemorate our brother and the master mausoleum. The pride of Austria. I love you, sir.
But how
same xD
I struggle to play that in half the tempo xD
potast itute i just cant get the beginning
@@akwadtypoyt8649 practice slowly until you're confident. Go beat by beat, divide it up as much as possible and you will get it!
Just apply the monte and fonte
Adagio 6:05
Rondo 9:39
Good 👏
16:27
How can anyone play this fast 😭
Yehoudi Menouhin.......the biggest violonist in the world
I played Kv 423 with my violin teacher in the last summer...as the violist.
Nice.
That moment your starting to practice this duo and are wondering how it's supposed to sound when you've learned it.... o_o
Why do I feel like the recording speeds up at some of the runs
I got an ad but at least it was between movements
I really like playing that on my violine
The 3rd movement is the best among the three movements
Adagio 6:05
Amazing!
That's It?
Und am Ende lande ich immer wieder bei Grumiaux. Als Mozart und Bach Interpret bleibt er für mich unübertroffen, trotz allen historischen Erkenntnissen. Erst hier geht mir das Herz auf! Wunderbar.
最高
Merry Christmas Everyone 🎄🎄🎄
Very nice absolutely delightful! Now where can I find this sheet music?
You can find it on IMSLP
Certifié intergalactique!
Is anyone out there who played this on a viola?
12:44 So cool
I want to play the rondo so bad. viola*
Tyrun Willoughby I'm a violin. Oh boy I'm not gonna be able to play the rondo in a couple of years. I only have around 1 1/2 years experience so yeah. I'm learning the first movement but I'm only having trouble with the doublestops
Tyrun Willoughby 0:05 - 0:07 is a part I can't seem to get
As a violinist myself, you need at least 4-5 years of intensive training to play this duet. Mastering this and playing it at this level is another story... I say around 7-8 year.
Joondo Chang update. I've played through this entire time. Although I made a lot of errors, I did it!
9:35
plot twist: the violist is a violinist B)

Stranissimo: primo tempo in Re Maggiore, secondo tempo in Do Maggiore?
Mai successo…
È in sol il primo tempo
@@rl-181E’ vero, hai ragione, e’ stata una mia svista! Grazie.
Allora tutto torna: secondo tempo alla sottodominante.
@@salvatoremartella5397 ma si tranquillo, anche se fosse stato in re maggiore il primo tempo, tutto sommato nulla di strano sarebbe stato, per esempio il concerto n 3 di Beethoven il primo movimento è in do minore e il secondo in Mi Maggiore
@@rl-181 sicuro non sia in Mi bemolle maggiore? Realmente non lo so…
Mozart per essere il più grande, non aveva bisogno di queste stranezze…, ERA TROPPO SUPERIORE!…
I genuinely appreciate the music a lot but this is one of the weakest viola sounds I've ever heard =/ sounds almost like a toy to be honest..
