[[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]] was prolific and wrote in many genres. Perhaps his best-admired work is in [[opera]], the [[piano concerto]], the [[symphony]], and in the [[string quartet]] and [[string quintet]]. Mozart also wrote much work for solo piano, other forms of [[chamber music]], [[mass (music)|mass]]es and other religious music, and endless dances, [[divertimento]]s, and other forms of light entertainment.

* The indication "K." or [[Köchel-Verzeichnis|KV]] refers to "[[Köchel-Verzeichnis|Köchel (Verzeichnis)]]", i.e. the (more or less) ''chronological'' (i.e. by composition date) catalog of Mozart's works by [[Ludwig von Köchel]]. Note that this catalog has been amended several times, leading to ambiguity over some KV numbers (see e.g. [[Symphony No. 25 (Mozart)|Symphony No. 25]]). A version of the Köchel catalog can be found [http://www.heartflyer.com/mozartsworks.htm here] and [[Köchel-Verzeichnis|here]].

* The compositions of Mozart listed below are grouped ''thematically'', i.e. by type of composition. Not all thematic groups of Mozart's works have a separate numbering that is generally accepted: Köchel only numbers Symphonies (1 to 41); Piano concertos (1 to 27, leaving out some early transcriptions by Mozart) and a few other groups. On the other hand, for string quartets, most chamber music and vocal music there is no such numbering (or at least no general accepted one).

Mozart's symphonic production covers a 24 year interval, from [[1764]] to [[1788]]. According to most recent investigations, Mozart wrote not just the 41 symphonies reported in traditional editions, but up to 68 complete works of this type. However, by convention, the original numbering has been retained, and so his last symphony is still known as "No. 41". Some of the symphonies (K .297, 385, 550) were revised by the author after their first versions.

===Childhood symphonies (1764-1771)===

These are the numbered symphonies from Mozart's early childhood. It should be noted that there are also a fair amount of unnumbered symphonies from this time period.

These symphonies are sometimes subcategorized as "Early" (1771–1773) and "Late" (1773–1775), and sometimes subcategorized as "Germanic" (with [[minuet]]) or "Italian" (without minuet). None of these were printed during Mozart's lifetime.

The three final symphonies (Nos. 39-41) were completed in about three months in 1788. It is quite likely that he hoped to publish these three works together as a single ''opus'', although actually they remained unpublished until after his death. One or two of them might have been played in public in Leipzig in 1789.

Mozart's [[Mozart Piano Concertos|production for piano and orchestra]] are numbered from 1 to 27. The first four numbered concertos are early works ([[Piano Concertos Nos 1-4 (Mozart)]]). The movements of these concertos are arrangements of keyboard sonatas by various contemporary composers (Raupach, Honauer, Schobert, Eckart, [[C.P.E. Bach]]). Concertos [[Concerto for 3 Pianos No. 7 in F major, K.242 (Lodron)|7]] and [[Piano Concerto No. 10 (Mozart)|10]] are compositions for three and two pianos respectively. The remaining twenty-one are original compositions for solo piano and orchestra. Among them, fifteen were written in the years from [[1782]] to [[1786]], while in the last five years Mozart wrote just two more piano concertos.

Mozart's five violin concertos were written in Salzburg around 1775. They are notable for the beauty of their melodies and the skillful use of the expressive and technical characteristics of the instrument, though Mozart probably never went through all the violin possibilities like others (e.g. [[Ludwig van Beethoven|Beethoven]] and [[Johannes Brahms|Brahms]]) did after him. ([[Alfred Einstein]] notes that the violin concerto–like sections in the serenades are more virtuosic than in the works titled Violin Concertos.)

Arguably the most widely played concertos for [[horn (instrument)|horn]], the four Horn Concertos are a major part of most professional horn players' repertoire. They were written for Mozart's lifelong friend [[Joseph Leutgeb]]. The concertos (especially the fourth) were written as virtuoso vehicles that allow the soloist to show a variety of abilities on the valveless horns of Mozart's day.

The Horn Concertos are characterized by an elegant and humorous dialogue between the soloist and the orchestra. Many of the autographs contain jokes aimed at the dedicatee.

Mozart's earliest composition attempts begin with [[piano sonata]]s and other piano pieces, as this is the instrument on which his musical education took place. Almost everything that he wrote for piano was intended to be played by himself (or by his sister, also a proficient piano player). Examples of his earliest works are those found in ''[[Nannerl's Music Book]]''.

Revision as of 05:16, 7 September 2008

This is a selective list of the works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, for a complete list organized by Köchel number, see Köchel catalogue

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was prolific and wrote in many genres. Perhaps his best-admired work is in opera, the piano concerto, the symphony, and in the string quartet and string quintet. Mozart also wrote much work for solo piano, other forms of chamber music, masses and other religious music, and endless dances, divertimentos, and other forms of light entertainment.

How Mozart's compositions are listed

  • The indication "K." or KV refers to "Köchel (Verzeichnis)", i.e. the (more or less) chronological (i.e. by composition date) catalog of Mozart's works by Ludwig von Köchel. Note that this catalog has been amended several times, leading to ambiguity over some KV numbers (see e.g. Symphony No. 25). A version of the Köchel catalog can be found here and here.
  • The compositions of Mozart listed below are grouped thematically, i.e. by type of composition. Not all thematic groups of Mozart's works have a separate numbering that is generally accepted: Köchel only numbers Symphonies (1 to 41); Piano concertos (1 to 27, leaving out some early transcriptions by Mozart) and a few other groups. On the other hand, for string quartets, most chamber music and vocal music there is no such numbering (or at least no general accepted one).
  • Only relatively few of Mozart's compositions have Opus numbers, as not so many of his compositions were published during his lifetime, so numbering by Opus number proves quite impractical for Mozart compositions.

Symphonies

Mozart's symphonic production covers a 24 year interval, from 1764 to 1788. According to most recent investigations, Mozart wrote not just the 41 symphonies reported in traditional editions, but up to 68 complete works of this type. However, by convention, the original numbering has been retained, and so his last symphony is still known as "No. 41". Some of the symphonies (K .297, 385, 550) were revised by the author after their first versions.

Childhood symphonies (1764–1771)

These are the numbered symphonies from Mozart's early childhood. It should be noted that there are also a fair amount of unnumbered symphonies from this time period.

Salzburg-era symphonies (1771–1781)

These symphonies are sometimes subcategorized as "Early" (1771–1773) and "Late" (1773–1775), and sometimes subcategorized as "Germanic" (with minuet) or "Italian" (without minuet). None of these were printed during Mozart's lifetime.

Although not counted as "symphonies" the three Divertimenti K. 136–138, in 3-movement Italian overture style, are sometimes indicated as "Salzburg Symphonies" too.

Late symphonies (1781–1791)

For years this was categorized as a Mozart symphony, but later scholarship determined that it was actually composed by Michael Haydn (Symphony No. 25), and Mozart wrote only the slow introduction for it.

The three final symphonies (Nos. 39–41) were completed in about three months in 1788. It is quite likely that he hoped to publish these three works together as a single opus, although actually they remained unpublished until after his death. One or two of them might have been played in public in Leipzig in 1789.

Concertos

Piano concertos

Main article: Mozart Piano Concertos

Mozart's production for piano and orchestra are numbered from 1 to 27. The first four numbered concertos are early works (Piano Concertos Nos 1-4 (Mozart)). The movements of these concertos are arrangements of keyboard sonatas by various contemporary composers (Raupach, Honauer, Schobert, Eckart, C.P.E. Bach). Concertos 7 and 10 are compositions for three and two pianos respectively. The remaining twenty-one are original compositions for solo piano and orchestra. Among them, fifteen were written in the years from 1782 to 1786, while in the last five years Mozart wrote just two more piano concertos.

Violin concertos

Mozart's five violin concertos were written in Salzburg around 1775. They are notable for the beauty of their melodies and the skillful use of the expressive and technical characteristics of the instrument, though Mozart probably never went through all the violin possibilities like others (e.g. Beethoven and Brahms) did after him. (Alfred Einstein notes that the violin concerto–like sections in the serenades are more virtuosic than in the works titled Violin Concertos.)

Horn concertos

Arguably the most widely played concertos for horn, the four Horn Concertos are a major part of most professional horn players' repertoire. They were written for Mozart's lifelong friend Joseph Leutgeb. The concertos (especially the fourth) were written as virtuoso vehicles that allow the soloist to show a variety of abilities on the valveless horns of Mozart's day.

The Horn Concertos are characterized by an elegant and humorous dialogue between the soloist and the orchestra. Many of the autographs contain jokes aimed at the dedicatee.

Piano music

Mozart's earliest composition attempts begin with piano sonatas and other piano pieces, as this is the instrument on which his musical education took place. Almost everything that he wrote for piano was intended to be played by himself (or by his sister, also a proficient piano player). Examples of his earliest works are those found in Nannerl's Music Book. Between 1782 and 1786 he wrote 20 works for piano solo (including sonatas, variations, fantasias, suites, fugues, rondo) and works for piano four hands and two pianos.

He also wrote for piano and violin (16 complete sonatas, plus several fragments and two variation sets), where —mainly in the more mature years— the piano does not play just a support to the other solo instrument, but builds a dialogue with it.

Variations for violin and piano

String duos and trios

String quartets

This cycle, in three movements, is interesting as far as these works can be considered precursors of the later —more complete— string quartets.
Much more stylistically developed. In Vienna Mozart is believed to have heard the op. 17 and op. 20 quartets of Joseph Haydn, and had received from them a deep impression.
Mozart returned to the quartet in the early 1780s after he had moved to Vienna, met Haydn in person, and developed a friendship with the older composer. Haydn had just published his set of six quartets Opus 33, which are thought to have been a stimulus to Mozart in returning to the genre. These quartets are often regarded as among the pinnacles of the genre.
This work was published by (dedicated to?) Franz Anton Hoffmeister, as well as the Prussian Quartets. Mozart's last three quartets, dedicated to the King of Prussia Friedrich Wilhelm II, are noted for the cantabile character of the parts for cello (the instrument played by the king himself), the sweetness of sounds and the equilibrium among the different instruments.

String quintets

The string quintets (K. 174, 406, 515, 516, 593, 614), for two violins, two violas and cello. Charles Rosen wrote that "by general consent, Mozart's greatest achievement in chamber music is the group of string quintets with two violas."[1].

This is a transcription for string quintet of the earlier Serenade for wind octet in C minor (K. 388).

Piano trios

  • Piano Trio in B-flat, K. 254

Other chamber music

Serenades, divertimenti, and other instrumental works

The production for instrumental ensembles includes several Divertimenti, Notturni, Serenades, Cassations, Marches, and Dances, besides, of course, the Symphonies. Mozart's production for orchestra is written for string ensembles (like the early Divertimenti K. 136–138), as well as for wind instruments ensembles and the varied combinations of string and wind.

Serenades

Divertimenti

  • Galimathias Musicum (Quodlibet), K. 32 (1766)
  • Cassation in G, K. 63 (1769)

Although sometimes described as string quartets, they are almost certainly for strings with double bass and are like Sinfonias in the Italian style.
  • Divertimento in D, K. 205 (1773)
  • Divertimento in F "Lodron", K. 247 (1776)
  • Divertimento in D, K. 251 (1776)

Dances

Mozart left a huge production of dances for orchestra, including the genres of Minuetto (more than 100), Contredanse and Allemande (or Teitsch, or Laendler, or German Dances).

In his production of minuets, Mozart generally followed Haydn's example, preferring the slow character of the dance. Allemandes (56 between 1787 and 1791) were written mainly for public balls in Vienna. In the Contredanse production, also written mainly in Vienna, some examples of program music are found, like Il Temporale K. 534, La Bataille K. 535, Canary K. 600/5, etc.

Sacred music

Mozart's sacred music is mainly vocal, though also instrumental examples exist, like the Sonate da Chiesa for 2 violins, double bass and organ, composed between 1767 and 1780.

Mozart's sacred music presents a rich stylistic mosaic: Gregorian choral elements meet rigorous counterpoint, and even operatic elements can sometimes emerge. Stylistic unity and consistency is present over all his sacred music work.

We include in this genre, for their liturgical character, also the compositions written for the Masonic Lodge, like The Cantata Laut Verkunde unsre Freude K623 and the Maurerische Trauermusik (Masonic Funeral Music) K477.
