I consider this a most striking find‚ since there really wasn?t anything called sonata-allegro form in the classical era. It just happened to be that music was very set in ratio now that we look back on it. Mozart wrote this piece in 1775 when he was just 19 years old‚ and it was his second piano sonata (as the title suggests). The exposition starts out in F Major with a small

Beethoven and Mozart Mozart and Beethoven were both famous musicians of the classical music‚ and they were considered to be geniuses‚ giant composers. There were some similarities and differences between them‚ so their fans and some experts often compared them each other.

Mozart and Salieri Amadeus versus Actuality Amadeus (1984) won eight Academy Awards with its highly fictionalized account of the last ten years of the life of 18th-century composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
