The Allegro section can be performed either as a full tutti work or in a concerto grosso fashion, giving you the flexibility of featuring your outstanding individual players while still programming the work with a younger ensemble. Outstanding!

These characteristics epitomise the music of the Viennese classical period of the late 18th century.The three-movement work opens with an elegant Allegro, followed by a tuneful Andante, and concludes with a light-hearted Rondo finale.This version of Mozart's popular work has been edited by Randall Faber.
