K.
14, Sonata in C
So
when I saw the movements of K. 14 were an allegro, allegro, and menuetto, I was
expecting the work to be an exceedingly happy number. On the contrary. The allegros both dabbled in merriment, but a
conflicting worry grew as the movements progressed. In the third movement, the first menuetto
reminisces in melancholy. The second menuetto,
sandwiched within the first, counts down the minutes, waiting… whether for time to end or circumstances to improve, is anyone’s guess.
My mind has been chewing on a few major works and what I could say about them. I have a poll on the side, you can vote for the next non-sequntial article. Feel free to comment as well concerning your favorite Mozart pieces.
