Rondo in C for Violin and Orchestra (Mozart)

(Redirected from K. 373) 1781 composition by W. A. Mozart

The Rondo in C for Violin and Orchestra, K. 373, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in April 1781. The rondo was likely written for Italian violinist Antonio Brunetti, who is known to have also requested both the Adagio in E and Rondo in B♭. The Rondo in C, however, was written years after the five numbered violin concertos. The work is scored for solo violin, two oboes, two horns in C, and strings.

Analysis

The Rondo is marked Allegretto grazioso, and a performance typically lasts between 5 and 6 minutes.
