The Köchel catalogue (German: Köchel-Verzeichnis) is a catalogue of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, originally created by Ludwig Ritter von Köchel, in which the entries are abbreviated K. or KV. Its numbers reflect the ongoing task of compiling the chronology of Mozart's works, and provide a shorthand reference to the compositions. For example, according to Köchel's counting, Requiem in D minor is the 626th piece Mozart composed, thus is designated K. 626. Köchel's original catalogue (1862) has been revised several times. Catalogue numbers from these revised editions are indicated either by parentheses or by superscript: K. 49 (47d) or K.6 47d refers to the work numbered 47d in the sixth edition. The catalog was originally chronological, though revisions made chronological ordering of Mozart's works difficult and as of 2024 a new organizational system is used for the ninth version.

The Violin Concerto No. 5 in A major, K. 219, often referred to by the nickname "Turkish", was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1775, premiering during the Christmas season that year in Salzburg. It follows the typical fast–slow–fast musical structure with certain deviations from the main tempo in the outer movements.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical period who wrote in many genres. Perhaps his best-admired works can be found within the categories of operas, piano concertos, piano sonatas, symphonies, string quartets, and string quintets. Mozart also wrote many violin sonatas; other forms of chamber music; violin concertos, and other concertos for one or more solo instruments; masses, and other religious music; organ music; masonic music; and numerous dances, marches, divertimenti, serenades, and other forms of light entertainment.

The Bassoon Concerto in B♭ major, K. 191/186e, is a bassoon concerto written in 1774 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It is the most often performed and studied piece in the entire bassoon repertory. Nearly all professional bassoonists will perform the piece at some stage in their career, and it is probably the most commonly requested piece in orchestral auditions – it is usually requested that the player perform excerpts from the concerto's first two movements in every audition. Although the autograph score is lost, the exact date of its completion is known: 4 June 1774. Mozart wrote the bassoon concerto when he was 18 years old, and it was his first concerto for a wind instrument. Although it is believed that it was commissioned by an aristocratic amateur bassoon player Thaddäus Freiherr von Dürnitz, who owned seventy-four works by Mozart, this is a claim that is supported by little evidence. Scholars believe that Mozart may have written five bassoon concertos, but that only the first has survived.

The Divertimento No. 1 in E♭ major, K. 113, is the first divertimento by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (although he had previously composed the three cassations, K. 63, 99 and 100 in 1769). Composed in late 1771. It was most likely first performed on 22 or 23 November for a subscription concert in Milan.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Clarinet Concerto in A major, K. 622, was completed in October 1791 for the clarinettist Anton Stadler. It consists of three movements, in a fast–slow–fast succession. The work was completed a few weeks before the composer's death. It was to be his second to last completed work, 'Laut verkünde unsre Freude' (KV 623) being his last, and has been described as his swan song. The date of its first performance is not certain, but may have been 16 October 1791 in Prague. The concerto was written to be played on the basset clarinet, which can play lower notes than an ordinary clarinet, but after the death of Mozart it was published with changes to the solo part to allow performance on conventional instruments. The manuscript score is lost, but from the latter part of the 20th century onwards many performances of the work have been given on basset clarinets in conjectural reconstructions of Mozart's original.

A horn is any of a family of musical instruments made of a tube, usually made of metal and often curved in various ways, with one narrow end into which the musician blows, and a wide end from which sound emerges. In horns, unlike some other brass instruments such as the trumpet, the bore gradually increases in width through most of its length—that is to say, it is conical rather than cylindrical. In jazz and popular-music contexts, the word may be used loosely to refer to any wind instrument, and a section of brass or woodwind instruments, or a mixture of the two, is called a horn section in these contexts.

The Concerto for Flute, Harp, and Orchestra in C major, K. 299/297c, is a concerto by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for flute, harp, and orchestra. It is one of only two true double concertos that he wrote (the other being his Piano Concerto No. 10; though his Sinfonia Concertante for Violin, Viola, and Orchestra could just as well be considered a "double concerto"), as well as the only piece of music by Mozart for the harp. The piece is one of the most popular such concertos in the repertoire, as well as often being found on recordings dedicated to either one of its featured instruments.

The Divertimento No. 15 in B♭ major, K. 287/271H, is a divertimento for two horns and strings by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. He composed the work in six movements in 1777 for the name day of Countess Maria Antonia Lodron. It is also known as the Lodronische Nachtmusik Nr. 2. Mozart composed the divertimento in 1777 for the name day of Countess Maria Antonia Lodron, a family friend and member of the Salzburg aristocracy. It was first performed on 13 June 1777 at an informal outdoor party.

The Divertimento for String Trio in E♭ major, K. 563, is a string trio written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1788, the year in which he completed his last three symphonies (nos. 39–41) and his "Coronation" Piano Concerto. It is his last divertimento and different from his other divertimenti not only in its instrumentation but also in its compositorial ambition and scope. The work was completed in Vienna on 27 September 1788 and is dedicated to Michael von Puchberg, a friend and fellow Freemason, who lent money to Mozart. The premiere was in Dresden on April 13, 1789, with Anton Teyber taking the violin part, Mozart playing viola and Antonín Kraft playing cello. At the time Mozart was conducting a tour of German cities, on his way to Berlin (see Mozart's Berlin journey).

A Musical Joke (German: Ein musikalischer Spaß) K. 522, (divertimento for two horns in F, and string quartet) is a composition by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; he entered it in his Verzeichnis aller meiner Werke (Catalogue of All My Works) on 14 June 1787. Commentators have opined that the piece's purpose is satirical – that "[its] harmonic and rhythmic gaffes serve to parody the work of incompetent composers" – though Mozart himself is not known to have revealed his actual intentions.

The Flute Concerto No. 1 in G major, K. 313, was written in 1778 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Commissioned by the Dutch surgeon and amateur flutist Ferdinand Dejean (1731–1797) in 1777, Mozart was supposed to provide four flute quartets and three flute concertos, yet he only completed two of the three concertos, this one being the first. The Andante for Flute and Orchestra, K. 315, may have been written as an alternative slow movement for this concerto, but there is no extant manuscript and it is therefore difficult to ascertain Mozart's intentions clearly (this also means that current editions are based on the earliest editions rather than an autograph).

Gallimathias musicum (also spelled Galimathias musicum) in D major, K. 32, is a quodlibet composed in March 1766 by the ten-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart during his grand tour of Europe. It was first performed at The Hague on 11 March 1766. A typical performance of this piece lasts twenty minutes.

Les petits riens (French for "The Little Nothings") is a ballet in one act and three tableaux by Jean-Georges Noverre, with music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and other unknown composers, first performed at the Academie Royale de Musique in Paris on 11 June 1778. The three tableaux are described in the Journal de Paris: l' Amour pris au filet et mis en cage. "Love caught in a net and put in a cage", performed by Mme Guimard, Auguste Vestris and a young child. Jeu de Colin-Maillard. The story of Jean Colin-Maillard was a legend about a warrior who fought on even with his eyes poked out. His name is the French word for the game Blind man's buff. The main role in this scene was performed by Jean Dauberval. Such playful scenery usually had flirtatious connotations, which is famously depicted by Fragonard in his painting Le Collin-Maillard. Espieglerie de l'Amour. "Playfulness of love" is a pastoral scene about a woman, played by Mlle Asselin, disguised as a male shepherd. Two other shepherdesses, performed by Mlles Guimard and Allard, fall in love with the shepherd. Finally, to disenchant the two shepherdesses the imposter ends up revealing her breasts to them. While Mozart was staying in Paris, Noverre asked him to compose a new score for a ballet that he had created in Vienna in 1767. The ballet was to be danced as an interlude in the new opera Le finte gemelle (1771) by Niccolò Piccinni. The opera was a flop and closed after four performances. Although the ballet music was well-received, Mozart was not credited with it, and he was at the time little known in Paris. The score, catalogued as K. Anh. 10/299b, was thought lost, but it was rediscovered in the Paris Opera's archives in the late 19th century and has since entered both the ballet and symphonic repertoire. The Passepied (nr. 11) in D major is reminiscent of the first movement of Tchaikovsky's Souvenir de Florence, Op. 70; a D minor version of the melody appears in bars 5 and 6. The motive derived from this is used throughout the piece. The German musicologist Ernst Fritz Schmid has proposed that the Gavotte in B-flat major, K. 300, was originally intended as an inserted movement of Les petits riens. Written between May and June 1778, Schmid sees no other reason why the composer would have composed stand-alone dance music in Paris whilst he was already writing a ballet. The piece was subsequently laid aside for unknown reasons.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a Classical composer and musician. In his brief life, he completed more than 800 works including outstanding examples of most of the genres of his time: symphonies, concertos, chamber music, opera, and choral music. Born in Salzburg, Mozart quickly emerged as a child prodigy under the training of his father Leopold, a skilled pedagogue. At age five, he was already competent on keyboard and violin, had begun to compose, and had performed before European royalty. His father took him on a grand tour of Europe and then three trips to Italy. At 17 he was a musician at the Salzburg court but grew restless and travelled in search of a better position. A fruitless journey in search of employment (1777–1779) led him to Paris, Mannheim, Munich, and eventually back to Salzburg. During this time he wrote his five violin concertos, the Sinfonia Concertante, various masses, and the opera Idomeneo. While he was visiting Vienna in 1781, Mozart's quarrels with his Salzburg employers came to a head and he was dismissed. He chose to remain in Vienna, where he stayed for the rest of his life, achieving fame and some financial success, but no long-term security. During Mozart's early years in Vienna he produced several notable works, such as the opera Die Entführung aus dem Serail, the Great Mass in C minor, the "Haydn" Quartets and a number of symphonies. Throughout his Vienna years Mozart composed more than a dozen piano concertos, many considered some of his greatest achievements. In the final years of his life, he wrote many of his best-known works, including his last three symphonies, culminating in the Jupiter, the serenade Eine kleine Nachtmusik, his Clarinet Concerto, the operas Le nozze di Figaro, Don Giovanni, Così fan tutte and Die Zauberflöte, the Piano Concerto No. 27 and his Requiem. The Requiem was largely unfinished at the time of his death at age 35.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 2 in E♭ major, K. 417, was completed in 1783. The concerto is scored for solo horn and an orchestra of two oboes, two horns, and strings. This is one of two horn concertos of Mozart to omit bassoons. It is also one of Mozart's two horn concertos to have ripieno horns (horns included in the orchestra besides the soloist), though in contrast to Horn Concerto No. 4, K. 495, the solo horn in this one does not duplicate the first ripieno horn's part in the tutti passages. Mozart's good-natured ribbing of his friend, hornist Joseph Leutgeb for whom this and other works were written, is evident in the manuscript's inscription "W. A. Mozart took pity on Leitgeb, ass, ox and fool in Vienna on 27 May 1783."

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 3 in E♭ major, K. 447, was completed between 1784 and 1787 in Vienna.

The Piano Concerto No. 24 in C minor, K. 491, is a concerto composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for keyboard (usually a piano or fortepiano) and orchestra. Mozart composed the concerto in the winter of 1785–1786, finishing it on 24 March 1786, three weeks after completing his Piano Concerto No. 23 in A major. As he intended to perform the work himself, Mozart did not write out the soloist's part in full. The premiere was in early April 1786 at the Burgtheater in Vienna. Chronologically, the work is the twentieth of Mozart's 23 original piano concertos. The work is one of only two minor-key piano concertos that Mozart composed, the other being the No. 20 in D minor. None of Mozart's other piano concertos features a larger array of instruments: the work is scored for strings, woodwinds, horns, trumpets and timpani. The first of its three movements, Allegro, is in sonata form and is longer than any opening movement of Mozart's earlier concertos. The second movement, Larghetto, in E♭ major—the relative major of C minor—features a strikingly simple principal theme. The final movement, Allegretto, is a theme and eight variations in C minor. The work is one of Mozart's most advanced compositions in the concerto genre. Its early admirers included Ludwig van Beethoven and Johannes Brahms. Musicologist Arthur Hutchings declared it to be, taken as a whole, Mozart's greatest piano concerto.

The Symphony No. 5 in C minor, Op. 67 (occasionally known as the Fate Symphony, German: Schicksalssinfonie), is a symphony composed by Ludwig van Beethoven between 1804 and 1808. It is one of the best-known of all symphonies and one of the most frequently played. First performed in Vienna in 1808, the work achieved its strong critical reputation not long afterward; E. T. A. Hoffmann described it as "one of the most important works of the time". The Fifth Symphony has four movements. It begins with a distinctive four-note "short-short-short-long" motif, often characterized as "fate knocking at the door", the Schicksals-Motiv (fate motif):

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a Classical composer and musician. In his brief life, he completed more than 800 works including outstanding examples of most of the genres of his time: symphonies, concertos, chamber music, opera, and choral music. Born in Salzburg, Mozart quickly emerged as a child prodigy under the training of his father Leopold, a skilled pedagogue. At age five, he was already competent on keyboard and violin, had begun to compose, and had performed before European royalty. His father took him on a grand tour of Europe and then three trips to Italy. At 17 he was a musician at the Salzburg court but grew restless and travelled in search of a better position. A fruitless journey in search of employment (1777–1779) led him to Paris, Mannheim, Munich, and eventually back to Salzburg. During this time he wrote his five violin concertos, the Sinfonia Concertante, various masses, and the opera Idomeneo. While he was visiting Vienna in 1781, Mozart's quarrels with his Salzburg employers came to a head and he was dismissed. He chose to remain in Vienna, where he stayed for the rest of his life, achieving fame and some financial success, but no long-term security. During Mozart's early years in Vienna he produced several notable works, such as the opera Die Entführung aus dem Serail, the Great Mass in C minor, the "Haydn" Quartets and a number of symphonies. Throughout his Vienna years Mozart composed more than a dozen piano concertos, many considered some of his greatest achievements. In the final years of his life, he wrote many of his best-known works, including his last three symphonies, culminating in the Jupiter, the serenade Eine kleine Nachtmusik, his Clarinet Concerto, the operas Le nozze di Figaro, Don Giovanni, Così fan tutte and Die Zauberflöte, the Piano Concerto No. 27 and his Requiem. The Requiem was largely unfinished at the time of his death at age 35.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Oboe Concerto in C major, K. 314 (271k), was composed in the spring or summer of 1777, for the oboist Giuseppe Ferlendis (1755–1802) from Bergamo. In 1778, Mozart re-worked it as a concerto for flute in D major. The concerto is a widely studied piece for both instruments and is one of the most important concertos in the oboe repertoire.

It is not known when Mozart completed his Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra in E-flat major, K. 365/316a, but research by Alan Tyson shows that cadenzas for the first and third movements are written in his and his father's handwriting on a type of paper used between August 1775 and January 1777. However, most sources, including Tyson's book Mozart: Studies of the Autograph Scores or more recently Lindeman's The Concerto: A Research and Information Guide (2006) indicate that it was composed in 1779. It is presumed that Mozart wrote it to play with his sister Maria Anna ("Nannerl"). Years later he performed it in a private concert with pupil Josepha Barbara Auernhammer.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 12 in A major, K. 414 (385p), was written in the autumn of 1782 in Vienna. It is scored for solo piano (or harpsichord), two oboes, two bassoons (optional), two horns, and strings (consisting of violins, violas, cellos, and double basses). Like all three of the early Vienna concertos that Mozart wrote, it is a modest work that can be performed with only string quartet and keyboard (i.e., a quattro). As per 18th-century performance practice, a string orchestra could also have served as a suitable option for the quattro accompaniment. The concerto has three movements: It was the first of a set of three keyboard concertos (with K. 413 and 415) that Mozart performed at his Lenten concerts in 1783. The concert rondo in A, K. 386, has often been discussed as an alternative finale to the work; however, K. 386 cannot be performed a quattro, and autograph evidence shows that the current finale starts on the same sheet as the end of the slow movement. Despite the modest nature and scoring of this concerto, it stands out in Mozart's early production. Although the three early Viennese concertos (Nos 11, 12 and 13) represent in some senses a formal regression compared to their immediate predecessors, especially No. 9 in E♭ major, this concerto is a forerunner of the mature works in terms of its musical effect. The second movement is notable for its quotation of a theme from the overture to La calamita de' cuori by Johann Christian Bach, Mozart's former mentor in London, who had just died on 1 January 1782. Since at this point Mozart also wrote back to his father concerning Bach's death, saying of it "what a loss to the musical world!", the moving Andante may also be regarded as a musical epitaph by the younger man for the old master.

The Piano Concerto No. 22 in E♭ major, K. 482, is a work for piano, or fortepiano, and orchestra by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in December 1785. This is the first piano concerto of Mozart's to include clarinets in its scoring. It is also scored for solo piano, flute, two clarinets (in B♭), two bassoons, two horns and two trumpets (silent in Andante) in E♭, timpani (in E♭ and B♭, silent in Andante), and strings.

The Piano Concerto No. 23 in A major K. 488 is a concerto for piano and orchestra written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It was finished, according to Mozart's own catalogue, on March 2, 1786, two months prior to the premiere of his opera, Le nozze di Figaro, and some three weeks prior to the completion of his next piano concerto. It was one of three subscription concerts given that spring and was probably played by Mozart himself at one of these. The concerto is scored for piano solo and an orchestra consisting of one flute, two clarinets, two bassoons, two horns and strings.

The Piano Concerto No. 6 in B♭ major, K. 238, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in January 1776. His Concerto No. 7 (K. 242) for three pianos and his Concerto No. 8 (K. 246) in C major would follow within three months. The three works share what Cuthbert Girdlestone refers to as a galant style. The United States Library of Congress holds the autograph score. Mozart had intended to publish the score after he composed it, but it did not appear in print until after his death, in 1793. He did, however, perform the work, in Munich in 1777, and in Augsburg on 22 October 1777. His student Rose Cannabich performed the work in Mannheim on 13 February 1778. Angela Hewitt observes that the first performances of the work were probably on a harpsichord rather than a fortepiano.

In 1776, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed three piano concertos, one of which was the Concerto for three pianos and orchestra in F major, No. 7, K. 242. He originally finished it in February 1776 for three pianos; however, when he eventually recomposed it for himself and another pianist in 1780 in Salzburg, he rearranged it for two pianos, and that is how the piece is often performed today. The concerto is often nicknamed "Lodron" because it was commissioned by Countess Antonia Lodron to be played with her two daughters Aloysia and Giuseppa. The concerto is scored for 2 oboes, 2 horns, 3 solo pianos and strings. It has three movements: Girdlestone, in his Mozart and His Piano Concertos, describes the concerto and compares one of the themes of its slow movement to similar themes that turn up in later concertos – especially No. 25, K. 503 – in more developed forms. The first British performance was given by the New Queen's Hall Orchestra at The Proms, Queen's Hall on 12 September 1907. The soloists were Henry Wood, York Bowen and Frederick Kiddle, conducted by Henri Verbrugghen.

The Piano Concerto No. 8 in C major, K. 246, nicknamed "Lützow Concert", was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in April 1776 in the same year as the Haffner Serenade (K. 250).

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 9 in E♭ major, K. 271, known as the Jeunehomme or Jenamy concerto was written in Salzburg in 1777 when the composer was 21 years old.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 1 in D major, K. (412+514)/386b was written in 1791. The work is in two movements. Unusually, each movement received a distinct number in the first edition of the Köchel catalogue: (K. 514) The concerto is scored for solo horn in D, two oboes, two bassoons, and strings. This is one of two horn concertos of Mozart to include bassoons (the other is Horn Concerto No. 3, K. 447), but in this one he "treats them indifferently in the first movement". It is the only one of Mozart's horn concertos to be in D major (the rest are in E♭ major) and the only one to have just two movements instead of the usual three (with the exception of the incompletely scored horn concerto, K. 370b+371). Although numbered first, this was actually the last of the four to be completed. Compared to the other three horn concertos, it is shorter in duration (two movements rather than three) and is much simpler in regard to both range and technique, perhaps in a nod to the horn player (Mozart's great friend) Joseph Leutgeb's advanced age and (presumably) reduced capabilities at the time of composition. The second movement, K. 514, was shown by Alan Tyson to have been finished by Mozart's student Franz Xaver Süssmayr after Mozart's death. Mozart's autograph score contains, arranged in strategic places throughout the sketch of the Rondo, a bizarre written narrative in Italian almost certainly directed at Leutgeb: For you, Mr. Donkey—Come on—quick—get on with it—like a good fellow—be brave—Are you finished yet?—for you—beast—oh what a dissonance—Oh!—Woe is me!!—Well done, poor chap—oh, pain in the balls!—Oh God, how fast!—you make me laugh—help—take a breather—go on, go on—that's a little better—still not finished?—you awful swine!—how charming you are!—dear one!—little donkey!—ha, ha, ha—take a breath!—But do play at least one note, you prick!—Aha! Bravo, bravo, hurrah!—You're going to bore me for the fourth time, and thank God it's the last—Oh finish now, I beg of you!—Confound it—also bravura?—Bravo!—oh, a sheep bleating—you're finished?—Thank heavens!—Enough, enough! A comparison between Mozart's draft and Süssmayr's version reveals that Süssmayr used very little of Mozart's material: bars 1–40 of Mozart's autograph corresponds almost exactly to bars 1–44 of Süssmayr's version, and the two thereafter diverge with only a few passages in Süssmayr (bars 59–62, 84–92, 109–116) bearing any close relationship to Mozart's material. Süssmayr's Rondo also makes use of a plainchant melody (the Lamentationes Ieremiae prophetae), and one explanation of this (by Christoph Wolff) is that the melody was copied out by Mozart while he was composing the Requiem, which Süssmayr later mistook as material for the Rondo. Given some discrepancies between K. 412 and known authentic Mozart concertos, as well as correspondence between Constanze Mozart and the publisher Johann André, Benjamin Perl argues that the entire concerto is probably really Mozart's revision of a lost original Leutgeb concerto. Mozart and Süssmayr would then have been working from and correcting the same Leutgeb draft, which contained the passages that their versions have in common. A similar situation holds for the Romance from Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 3, K. 447, which also exists in two versions: one by Mozart, and another by Michael Haydn which uses almost the same theme and has many commonalities. It may also stem from a Leutgeb original composition.

The Piano Concerto No. 24 in C minor, K. 491, is a concerto composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for keyboard (usually a piano or fortepiano) and orchestra. Mozart composed the concerto in the winter of 1785–1786, finishing it on 24 March 1786, three weeks after completing his Piano Concerto No. 23 in A major. As he intended to perform the work himself, Mozart did not write out the soloist's part in full. The premiere was in early April 1786 at the Burgtheater in Vienna. Chronologically, the work is the twentieth of Mozart's 23 original piano concertos. The work is one of only two minor-key piano concertos that Mozart composed, the other being the No. 20 in D minor. None of Mozart's other piano concertos features a larger array of instruments: the work is scored for strings, woodwinds, horns, trumpets and timpani. The first of its three movements, Allegro, is in sonata form and is longer than any opening movement of Mozart's earlier concertos. The second movement, Larghetto, in E♭ major—the relative major of C minor—features a strikingly simple principal theme. The final movement, Allegretto, is a theme and eight variations in C minor. The work is one of Mozart's most advanced compositions in the concerto genre. Its early admirers included Ludwig van Beethoven and Johannes Brahms. Musicologist Arthur Hutchings declared it to be, taken as a whole, Mozart's greatest piano concerto.

The Piano Concerto No. 21 in C major, K. 467, was completed on 9 March 1785 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, four weeks after the completion of the previous D minor concerto, K. 466. The autograph manuscript of the concerto is preserved in the Morgan Library & Museum, New York City.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Violin Concerto No. 1 in B♭ major, K. 207, once was supposed to have been composed in 1775 (when Mozart was 19), along with his other four violin concertos. However, analysis of handwriting and the manuscript paper on which the concerto was written suggest that the date of composition might have been 1773, specifically with a completion date of April 1773. If this date is correct, the concerto is likely to be Mozart's first original concerto. It exhibits the usual fast–slow–fast structure that was predominant for solo concertos of the late eighteenth century. The musicologist Wolfgang Plath, after critically analysing the autograph score of all five of Mozart's violin concertos, discovered that the last two digits of the date on each had been tampered with. According to Plath, all dates were altered to read 1780 at some point, and subsequently changed back to 1775 later. Using evidence displayed in the handwriting and watermarks, Plath argued that the latter date was most likely correct for the last four concertos, but he refuted the claim of K. 207 being written in the same year; he proposed that the work, instead, originally bore a date of 1773. The reason for the composition of the violin concertos is generally uncertain, although it is evident that the composer performed them in public on several occasions. Contrary to the erroneous statement that implies otherwise, they could not have been written for Antonio Brunetti, the concertmaster of the Salzburg court orchestra, due to the fact that (as observed by Zaslaw) the violinist only assumed the post in 1776. Zaslaw also addresses the Kolb issue. This is in reference to a violin concerto mentioned by Wolfgang's father, Leopold, in a letter from August 1778, reading: "the concerto you [Wolfgang] wrote for Kolb". This refers to Salzburg violinist Franz Xaver Kolb, who is recorded to have performed said concerto to great success in September 1777 and July 1778. The identity of the concerto that Kolb performed has been speculated by scholars, as there are no specific details regarding the work on which musicologists can build upon. It was proposed by Carl Bär in 1963 that the spurious violin concerto, K. 271a was the mentioned work performed by Kolb, and has ergo been given the nickname the Kolb Concerto. The authenticity of the work has been doubted and dismissed by several Mozart experts, and was excluded in the first edition of the Köchel catalogue. Daniel E. Freeman has recently brought to light new evidence that supports the dating of April 1773, when Mozart had just returned to Salzburg from Italy, where he maintained close contacts with his close friend Josef Mysliveček, one of the most prominent composers of violin concertos in Italy at the time. The most striking connection between the first concerto of Mozart and the work of Mysliveček is the opening theme of Mozart's first movement, which appears to be quoted directly from Mysliveček’s Violin Concerto No. 1 in D major, a work that was certainly written earlier, since it appears for sale in the Breitkopf catalog of 1769. The absence of a rondo finale in the original version of Mozart’s concerto is consistent with preferences throughout Europe in the early 1770s (by the time Mozart’s later concertos were written, rondo finales had started to become common). The formal scheme of the fast movements conforms precisely to a distinctive formal scheme that is standard in all of Mysliveček’s violin concertos. Passages for the soloist accompanied only by two violins in this Mozart concerto was a trait of Mysliveček’s violin concertos likely picked up from his contact with Giuseppe Tartini in Padua in the late 1760s. The movements are: The concerto is full of intricate passage work with running sixteenth notes and characterized generally by high spirits. Its simpler, less developed style in comparison to Mozart's Violin Concertos Nos. 2-5 serves as another likely confirmation of its earlier composition. The composer's abilities had advanced markedly between 1773 and 1775. Multi-work recordings of Mozart's violin concertos often omit his first violin concerto, since it reveals a musical inspiration less compelling than in the others. The Rondo in B♭, K. 269, for violin and orchestra, also is connected to this concerto. It was intended to replace the finale movement and was composed to fulfil the recommendation of Antonio Brunetti, a violinist in Salzburg at the time. It was obviously composed to "modernise" the concerto in light of the new trend for rondo finales in solo concertos during the mid-1770s. Nonetheless, typically the concerto is performed with the original finale and the K. 269 Rondo remains a separate concert piece.

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.

The Serenade No. 10 for winds in B♭ major, K. 361/370a, is a serenade by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart scored for thirteen instruments: twelve winds and double bass. The piece was composed in 1781 and is often known by the subtitle Gran Partita, though in the autograph manuscript it is misspelled ("Gran Partitta") and not in Mozart's hand. It consists of seven movements.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical period who wrote in many genres. Perhaps his best-admired works can be found within the categories of operas, piano concertos, piano sonatas, symphonies, string quartets, and string quintets. Mozart also wrote many violin sonatas; other forms of chamber music; violin concertos, and other concertos for one or more solo instruments; masses, and other religious music; organ music; masonic music; and numerous dances, marches, divertimenti, serenades, and other forms of light entertainment.

E-flat major is a major scale based on E♭, consisting of the pitches E♭, F, G, A♭, B♭, C, and D. Its key signature has three flats. Its relative minor is C minor, and its parallel minor is E♭ minor, (or enharmonically D♯ minor). The E♭ major scale is: The E-flat harmonic major and melodic major scales are

The Serenade No. 4 in D major, K. 203/189b was written in August 1774 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for ceremonies at the University of Salzburg. It is nicknamed Colloredo after Mozart's patron, Count Hieronymus von Colloredo. The work is very similar to the serenade K. 204 composed for Salzburg the following summer.

Symphony No. 35 in D major, K. 385, also known as the Haffner Symphony, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1782. It was commissioned by the Haffners, a prominent Salzburg family, for the occasion of the ennoblement of Sigmund Haffner the Younger. The Haffner Symphony should not be confused with the eight-movement Haffner Serenade, another piece Mozart wrote on commission from the same family in 1776.

The Serenade No. 6 in D major, K. 239, Serenata notturna, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Salzburg, in 1776, for a group of four soloists and orchestra. Mozart's father, Leopold Mozart, wrote the title and a January 1776 date on the original manuscript. It has three movements. It is a concertante work for a group of four soloists, two violins, viola and double bass, and a string orchestra with two violins, one viola, one cello, and one timpani. The title Serenata notturna has also been used by Robin Holloway for a work for four horns and orchestra (his opus 52, 1982).

The Serenade for orchestra in D major, K. 250 (248b), popularly known as the Haffner Serenade, is a serenade by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart named for the Haffner family. Mozart's friend and contemporary Sigmund Haffner the Younger commissioned the serenade to be used in the course of the festivities before the wedding of his sister Marie Elisabeth Haffner and her intended, Franz Xaver Spaeth. The Serenade was first played on 21 July 1776, on the eve of the wedding. It is in eight movements: The second, third and fourth movements feature prominent violin solos. Indeed, the rondeau (the fourth movement) has been arranged for solo violin and used as a popular virtuoso piece. It is assumed that the Marcia K. 249 was intended as entrance and exit music together with this Serenade. A typical performance lasts approximately 55 minutes.

The Serenade for Orchestra No. 9 in D major K. 320, Posthorn, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Salzburg, in 1779. The manuscript is dated 3 August 1779 and was intended for the University of Salzburg's "Finalmusik" ceremony that year. The serenade is scored for two flutes, piccolo, two oboes, two bassoons, two horns, two trumpets, post horn, timpani and strings. This scoring is unusually large for a work of this type. Normally, the same players would play oboe and flute, but in this case they appear simultaneously. The timpani, also, were not usually part of the serenade orchestra. It has seven movements: The Concertante and Rondeau movements feature prominent concertante sections for flutes, oboes, and bassoons. These were performed on their own in a concert in the old Vienna Burgtheater on 23 March 1783, along with the Haffner symphony, an aria from Idomeneo, and several other works. The first trio of the second minuet features a solo piccolo (called "flautino" in the manuscript) played over strings. The second trio of the second minuet features a solo for the post horn. This solo gives the serenade its nickname. A typical performance lasts approximately 45 minutes.

Eine kleine Nachtmusik (Serenade No. 13 for strings in G major), K. 525, is a 1787 composition for a chamber ensemble by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791). The German title means "a little night music" and it is one of the most famous pieces of classical music. The circumstances around the composition of this piece are not known. The extant piece contains four movements: Allegro, Romance, Menuetto, and Finale. However, another movement is now believed to be lost.

There are two compositions with this title: Sinfonia concertante in E flat major K.364 (320d) by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Sinfonia concertante in E flat major K. 297b (Anh. C 14.01) perhaps an arrangement of a lost work by Mozart but the authorship is debated.

The Sinfonia Concertante for Violin, Viola and Orchestra in E♭ major, K. 364 (320d), was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. At the time of its composition in 1779, Mozart was on a tour of Europe that included Mannheim and Paris. It was not his first composition for two or more string soloists – he had been experimenting with the sinfonia concertante genre in the Concertone in C for two violins, K190 written five years earlier, and he was also working on a Sinfonia concertante in A for violin, viola and cello, K320e which was left in fragmentary form. Simon P Keefe describes this work as 'a concerto in all but name'.

The Symphony No. 39 in E♭ major of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, K. 543, was completed on 26 June 1788.

The Symphony in C major "No. 52", K. 208+102, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1775. The first two movements are from the opera Il re pastore, K. 208, and the last movement, K. 102/213c, was composed separately. The movements are played one after another without a break. The Alte Mozart-Ausgabe (published 1879–1882) gives the numbering sequence 1–41 for the 41 numbered symphonies. The unnumbered symphonies (some, including K. 102, published in supplements to the Alte-Mozart Ausgabe until 1910) are sometimes given numbers in the range 42 to 56, even though they were written earlier than Mozart's Symphony No. 41 (written in 1788). The symphony K. 208+102 is given the number 52 in this numbering scheme.

The Symphony, K. 96 "No. 46" in C major, K. 96/111b, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart probably in 1771 in Milan. The symphony is scored for two oboes, two horns in C, two trumpets in C, timpani and strings. In contemporary orchestras, it was also usual to include bassoons and harpsichord if they were available in the orchestra to reinforce the bass line and act as the continuo. The duration is approximately 15 minutes. The symphony consists of the following movements: Allegro, 44 Andante, 68 Menuetto, 34 Molto allegro, 24 Alfred Einstein suggested in his revision of the Köchel catalogue that the symphony was composed in October–November 1771 in Milan, and that the minuet was added later. The authenticity of this symphony is uncertain as the autograph is lost; the dates given to this symphony vary considerably, from 1770 to 1775. The Alte Mozart-Ausgabe (published 1879–1882) gives the numbering sequence 1–41 for the 41 numbered symphonies. The unnumbered symphonies (some, including K. 96, published in supplements to the Alte-Mozart Ausgabe until 1910) are sometimes given numbers in the range 42 to 56, even though they were written earlier than Mozart's Symphony No. 41 (written in 1788). The symphony K. 96 is given the number 46 in this numbering scheme.

The Symphony No. 38 in D major, K. 504, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in late 1786. It premiered in Prague on January 19, 1787, during Mozart's first visit to the city. Because it was first performed in Prague, it is often called the Prague Symphony. Mozart's autograph thematic catalogue records 6 December 1786 as the date of completion. Other works written by Mozart roughly contemporary with this symphony include the Piano Trio in B♭, K. 502 (completed 18 November 1786), the Piano Concerto No. 25, K. 503 (completed 4 December 1786), and scena and rondò Ch'io mi scordi di te?, K. 505, for soprano and orchestra (completed 26 December 1786).

The Symphony in D major "No. 51", K. 196+121 (207a, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1774–1775. The first two movements originated from the overture to the opera La finta giardiniera, K. 196, and the last movement, K. 121/207a, was composed separately in 1775. (The dating of the last movement was questioned by Alan Tyson as the paper used was purchased by Mozart in Milan in late 1772 and used until early 1773, but Mozart apparently took some of this paper back to Salzburg and used it in 1776.) The Alte Mozart-Ausgabe (published 1879–1882) gives the numbering sequence 1–41 for the 41 numbered symphonies. The unnumbered symphonies (some, including K. 121/207a, were published in supplements to the Alte-Mozart Ausgabe until 1910) are sometimes given numbers in the range 42 to 56, even though they were written earlier than Mozart's Symphony No. 41 (written in 1788). The symphony K. 196+121 is given the number 51 in this numbering scheme.

The Symphony in D major "No. 50", K. 161/141a, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1772. The first two movements are from the overture to the opera Il sogno di Scipione, K. 126, and the last movement, K. 163, was composed separately. Köchel gave the entire work the number K. 161 (revised to K. 141a in later editions). The symphony is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two natural horns in D, two trumpets in D, timpani and strings. The trumpets and timpani are silent for the second movement. The symphony consists of the following movements: Allegro moderato, 22 Andante, 34 Presto, 38 The Alte Mozart-Ausgabe (published 1879–1882) gives the numbering sequence 1–41 for the 41 numbered symphonies. The unnumbered symphonies (some, including K. 161/141a, published in supplements to the Alte-Mozart Ausgabe until 1910) are sometimes given numbers in the range 42 to 56, even though they were written earlier than Mozart's Symphony No. 41 (written in 1788). The symphony K. 161 is given the number 50 in this numbering scheme.

The Symphony in D major "No. 44", K. 81/73l, may have been written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1770 in Rome, although it has sometimes also been attributed to his father Leopold Mozart. It is now also catalogued as Eisen D 14 (LMV VII:D14) in Cliff Eisen's catalogue of Leopold Mozart's symphonies. The symphony is scored for two oboes, two horns and strings. In contemporary orchestras, it was also usual to include bassoons and harpsichord if they were available in the orchestra to reinforce the bass line and act as the continuo. The horns are silent for the second movement. The duration is approximately 10 minutes. The symphony consists of the following movements: Allegro, 44 Andante, 24 G major Allegro molto, 38 The form of the symphony is that of an Italian overture. No autographs exist for Mozart's four D major symphonies written during his first trip to Italy (K. 81, K. 84, K. 95 and K. 97), and as such their authenticity is doubtful. A copy of K. 81, dated 25 April 1770, attributes the symphony to Wolfgang. A letter from 25 April 1770 from Mozart to his sister states that Leopold had copied one of his (Mozart's) symphonies so that the autograph could remain in the house. A catalogue of Breitkopf & Härtel lists Leopold as the composer, but the reason for this could be that Leopold, and not Wolfgang, presented the work to them. In his edition of the Köchel catalogue, Alfred Einstein rejects the authorship of Leopold, stating that it would be strange if Leopold composed one of the most "charming and intelligent" of the Italian symphonies of 1770. However, in the similar case of the "Lambach" symphonies, the "more modern" "New Lambach" symphony turned out to be Leopold's work. Also, Neal Zaslaw disagrees with this viewpoint ("charming and intelligent") of K. 81, instead calling it "bright, superficial and conventional". Bernhard Paumgartner assigned the symphony to Wolfgang, and stated (similarly to Wolfgang Gersthofer) that these four Italian symphonies are similar to each other, making it likely that they are all the work of the same composer, and that they are characteristic of Mozart's symphonies composed in Italy. Thus, they consider it very likely that Mozart was the author of all four symphonies. The Alte Mozart-Ausgabe (published 1879–1882) gives the numbering sequence 1–41 for the 41 numbered symphonies. The unnumbered symphonies (some, including K. 81, published in supplements to the Alte-Mozart Ausgabe until 1910) are sometimes given numbers in the range 42 to 56, even though they were written earlier than Mozart's Symphony No. 41 (written in 1788). The symphony K. 81 is given the number 44 in this numbering scheme.

The Symphony in D major "No. 47", K. 97/73m, was probably written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1770 in Rome.

The Symphony in F major "No. 42", K. 75, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart probably around March to August 1771 in Salzburg. The symphony is scored for two oboes, two horns in F (only in first and last movement) and strings. In Mozart's time, it was usual to include also bassoons and harpsichord if they were available to reinforce the bass line and act as the continuo. The duration is approximately 13 minutes. The symphony consists of the following movements: Allegro, 34 Menuetto, 34 Andantino, 24 in B-flat major Allegro, 38 Unusually, the minuet and trio is the second rather than the usual third movement. Like other works from this time period, such as the K. 97 symphony, the autograph, which was in the possession of Breitkopf & Härtel, was destroyed during World War II. Mozart's authorship therefore remains uncertain. Most professionals consider the work authentic. The Alte Mozart-Ausgabe (published 1879–82) gives the numbering sequence 1–41 for the 41 numbered symphonies. The unnumbered symphonies (some, including K. 75, published in supplements to the Alte Mozart-Ausgabe until 1910) are sometimes given numbers in the range 42 to 56, even though they were written earlier than Mozart's Symphony No. 41 (written in 1788). The symphony K. 75 is given the number 42 in this numbering scheme.

The Symphony "No. 43" in F major, K. 76/42a, was probably written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The symphony is scored for two oboes, two horns in F, two bassoons and strings. The oboes are silent for the second movement. The inclusion of the bassoons is notable as in contemporary orchestras bassoon parts were not usually written in and simply doubled the cellos and double basses. In contemporary orchestras, it was also usual to include the harpsichord if they were available in the orchestra to reinforce the bass line and act as the basso continuo. The duration is approximately 15 minutes. The symphony consists of the following movements: Allegro maestoso, 44 Andante, 34 in B-flat major Menuetto, 34 - Trio (D minor) Allegro, 24 The autograph has been lost. The only source for this symphony was a set of parts in the archives of the publisher Breitkopf & Härtel, which was destroyed during World War II. The Alte Mozart-Ausgabe (published 1879–1882) gives the numbering sequence 1–41 for the 41 numbered symphonies. The unnumbered symphonies (some, including K. 76, published in supplements to the Alte-Mozart Ausgabe until 1910) are sometimes given numbers in the range 42 to 56, even though they were written earlier than Mozart's Symphony No. 41 (written in 1788). The symphony K. 76 is given the number 43 in this numbering scheme.

The Symphony No. 1 in E♭ major, K. 16, is a symphony written in 1764 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart at the age of eight years. By this time, he was already notable in Europe as a wunderkind performer but had composed little music. The autograph score (handwritten original) of the symphony is today preserved in the Biblioteka Jagiellońska in Kraków.

Symphony No. 40 in G minor, K. 550, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1788. It is one of his most celebrated and widely performed works.

Symphony No. 11 in D major, K. 84/73q, was at one time considered unquestionably to be the work of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The symphony's status has, however, been challenged, and remains uncertain. It is believed to date from 1770, and may have been written in Milan or Bologna, if it is a genuine Mozart work. An early manuscript from Vienna attributes the work to Wolfgang, but nineteenth-century copies of the score attribute it respectively to Leopold Mozart and to Carl Dittersdorf. Neal Zaslaw writes: "A comparison of the results of two stylistic analyses of the work's first movement with analyses of unquestionably genuine first movements of the period by the three composers suggests that Wolfgang is the most likely of the three to have been the composer of K73q." Kenyon opines that there is "little special" about the work, while Zaslaw finds a "Gluckish ambience", and some affinity with opera buffa in the repeated triplets found in the finale.

Symphony No. 40 in G minor, K. 550, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1788. It is one of his most celebrated and widely performed works.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart completed his Symphony No. 41 in C major, K. 551, on 10 August 1788. The longest and last symphony that he composed, it is regarded by many critics as among the greatest symphonies in classical music. The work is nicknamed the Jupiter Symphony, probably coined by the impresario Johann Peter Salomon. The autograph manuscript of the symphony is preserved in the Berlin State Library.

Symphony No. 14 in A major, K. 114, is a symphony composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart on December 30, 1771, when Mozart was fifteen years old, and a fortnight after the death of the Archbishop Sigismund von Schrattenbach. The piece was written in Salzburg between the composer's second and third trips to Italy. Mozart was also influenced by J. C. Bach's "Italianate" style of composition". Musicologist Jens Peter Larsen called the symphony "One of [Mozart's] most inspired symphonies of the period... a fine example of the fusion of Viennese symphonic traditions with distinctly Italian cantabile."

Symphony No. 24 in B♭ major, K. 182/173dA, is a symphony composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, completed in Salzburg on 3 October 1773. The symphony is scored for two oboes (replaced by two flutes in the slow movement), two horns in B♭, and E♭ for the second movement, and strings. He wrote the symphony in three movements: The autograph score is today located in the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin Preußischer Kulturbesitz.

The Symphony No. 25 in G minor, K. 183/173 dB, was written by the then 17-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in October 1773, shortly after the success of his opera seria Lucio Silla. It was completed in Salzburg on 5 October, a mere two days after the completion of his Symphony No. 24. Its first movement was used as the opening music in Miloš Forman's biographical film Amadeus. This is one of two symphonies Mozart composed in G minor, sometimes referred to as the "little G minor symphony". The other is the Symphony No. 40; see also Mozart and G minor.

The Symphony No. 26 in E♭ major, K. 184/161a, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and completed on 30 March 1773, one month after he returned from his third Italian tour. The symphony is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two bassoons, two horns, two trumpets and strings. The symphony has three movements:

Symphony No. 27 in G major, K. 199/161b, is a symphony composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in April, 1773. The symphony is scored for 2 flutes; 2 horns in G, in D for the second movement; and strings. This symphony is in three movements:

The Symphony No. 28 in C major, K. 200/189k, by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is his last piece in the "Salzburg series". The exact date of composition is uncertain because of Mozart's unclear handwriting; the month is clearly November, but the day can be read as 12 or 17, and the year has been read as 1774, but more recent research points to 1773. The symphony was written early in Mozart's oeuvre, following the example of the twenty-fifth symphony.

The Symphony No. 29 in A major, K. 201/186a, was completed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart on 6 April 1774. It is, along with Symphony No. 25, one of his better known early symphonies. Stanley Sadie characterizes it as "a landmark ... personal in tone, indeed perhaps more individual in its combination of an intimate, chamber music style with a still fiery and impulsive manner."

The Symphony No. 31 in D major, K. 297/300a, better known as the Paris Symphony, is a symphony by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It may have been first of his symphonies to be published when Jean-Georges Sieber released their edition in 1779. The autograph manuscript of the symphony (with that of the alternative middle movement) are preserved in the Berlin State Library.

Symphony No. 35 in D major, K. 385, also known as the Haffner Symphony, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1782. It was commissioned by the Haffners, a prominent Salzburg family, for the occasion of the ennoblement of Sigmund Haffner the Younger. The Haffner Symphony should not be confused with the eight-movement Haffner Serenade, another piece Mozart wrote on commission from the same family in 1776.

Mozart's Symphony No. 36 in C major, K. 425, also known as the Linz Symphony, was written over four days in November 1783 when the composer and his wife Constanze stopped in Linz on their way home to Vienna after a trip to Salzburg. When Johann Joseph Anton, the Count of Thun, heard of the composer's arrival, he announced a concert. The symphony premiered in Linz on November 4, 1783, and was later performed in Vienna on April 1, 1784. The autograph score of the symphony was not preserved, but sections sold by Mozart to the Fürstenberg court at Donaueschingen in 1786 survive.

Symphony No. 37 in G major, (K. 444/425a + Anh A 53) is a work that was once attributed to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and given a place in the Köchel catalogue as well as the number '37'. It is in fact Symphony No. 25 in G major by Michael Haydn, bearing the catalogue numbers P 16 and MH 334. This mistake, long ago corrected, resulted from a brief musical introduction (an adagio maestoso) added by Mozart to Haydn's symphony.

The Symphony No. 38 in D major, K. 504, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in late 1786. It premiered in Prague on January 19, 1787, during Mozart's first visit to the city. Because it was first performed in Prague, it is often called the Prague Symphony. Mozart's autograph thematic catalogue records 6 December 1786 as the date of completion. Other works written by Mozart roughly contemporary with this symphony include the Piano Trio in B♭, K. 502 (completed 18 November 1786), the Piano Concerto No. 25, K. 503 (completed 4 December 1786), and scena and rondò Ch'io mi scordi di te?, K. 505, for soprano and orchestra (completed 26 December 1786).

Symphony No. 6 in F major, K. 43, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1767. According to Alfred Einstein in his 1937 revision of the Köchel catalogue, the symphony was probably begun in Vienna and completed in Olomouc, a Moravian city to which the Mozart family fled to escape a Viennese smallpox epidemic; see Mozart and smallpox. The symphony is in four movements. Its initial performance was at Brno on 30 December 1767 The autograph of the score is today preserved in the Jagiellonian Library in Kraków.

Symphony No. 7 in D major, K. 45, by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, was completed in Vienna in January 1768 after the family's return from a visit to Olomouc and Brno in Moravia. Its first performance was probably at a private concert. The symphony was reworked to become the overture to Mozart's opera, La finta semplice, K. 51, composed and performed later that year, and the overture itself was subsequently adapted further to create a new symphony, known in the Köchel 1964 (K6) catalogue as K. 46a. The autograph of the score is preserved in the Berlin State Library.

Symphony No. 9 in C major, K. 73 (K3 75a), by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, has an uncertain provenance. The most likely date of its composition appears to be late 1769 or early 1770 during Mozart's first Italian journey, although some authorities have dated it "probably not before early summer 1772". It may have been started in Salzburg, before the first Italian journey began, and completed during the trip. The symphony is in four movements and is Mozart's first extant symphony in the key of C major. There is no information concerning which of the many Italian concerts given by the Mozarts during this visit saw this symphony's first performance. The autograph score is preserved in the Jagiellonian Library in Kraków.

Thamos, King of Egypt (or King Thamos; in German, Thamos, König in Ägypten) is a play by Tobias Philipp von Gebler, for which, between 1773 and 1780, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote incidental music, K. 345/336a, of an operatic character. The autograph manuscript of the work is preserved in the Berlin State Library.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Violin Concerto No. 1 in B♭ major, K. 207, once was supposed to have been composed in 1775 (when Mozart was 19), along with his other four violin concertos. However, analysis of handwriting and the manuscript paper on which the concerto was written suggest that the date of composition might have been 1773, specifically with a completion date of April 1773. If this date is correct, the concerto is likely to be Mozart's first original concerto. It exhibits the usual fast–slow–fast structure that was predominant for solo concertos of the late eighteenth century. The musicologist Wolfgang Plath, after critically analysing the autograph score of all five of Mozart's violin concertos, discovered that the last two digits of the date on each had been tampered with. According to Plath, all dates were altered to read 1780 at some point, and subsequently changed back to 1775 later. Using evidence displayed in the handwriting and watermarks, Plath argued that the latter date was most likely correct for the last four concertos, but he refuted the claim of K. 207 being written in the same year; he proposed that the work, instead, originally bore a date of 1773. The reason for the composition of the violin concertos is generally uncertain, although it is evident that the composer performed them in public on several occasions. Contrary to the erroneous statement that implies otherwise, they could not have been written for Antonio Brunetti, the concertmaster of the Salzburg court orchestra, due to the fact that (as observed by Zaslaw) the violinist only assumed the post in 1776. Zaslaw also addresses the Kolb issue. This is in reference to a violin concerto mentioned by Wolfgang's father, Leopold, in a letter from August 1778, reading: "the concerto you [Wolfgang] wrote for Kolb". This refers to Salzburg violinist Franz Xaver Kolb, who is recorded to have performed said concerto to great success in September 1777 and July 1778. The identity of the concerto that Kolb performed has been speculated by scholars, as there are no specific details regarding the work on which musicologists can build upon. It was proposed by Carl Bär in 1963 that the spurious violin concerto, K. 271a was the mentioned work performed by Kolb, and has ergo been given the nickname the Kolb Concerto. The authenticity of the work has been doubted and dismissed by several Mozart experts, and was excluded in the first edition of the Köchel catalogue. Daniel E. Freeman has recently brought to light new evidence that supports the dating of April 1773, when Mozart had just returned to Salzburg from Italy, where he maintained close contacts with his close friend Josef Mysliveček, one of the most prominent composers of violin concertos in Italy at the time. The most striking connection between the first concerto of Mozart and the work of Mysliveček is the opening theme of Mozart's first movement, which appears to be quoted directly from Mysliveček’s Violin Concerto No. 1 in D major, a work that was certainly written earlier, since it appears for sale in the Breitkopf catalog of 1769. The absence of a rondo finale in the original version of Mozart’s concerto is consistent with preferences throughout Europe in the early 1770s (by the time Mozart’s later concertos were written, rondo finales had started to become common). The formal scheme of the fast movements conforms precisely to a distinctive formal scheme that is standard in all of Mysliveček’s violin concertos. Passages for the soloist accompanied only by two violins in this Mozart concerto was a trait of Mysliveček’s violin concertos likely picked up from his contact with Giuseppe Tartini in Padua in the late 1760s. The movements are: The concerto is full of intricate passage work with running sixteenth notes and characterized generally by high spirits. Its simpler, less developed style in comparison to Mozart's Violin Concertos Nos. 2-5 serves as another likely confirmation of its earlier composition. The composer's abilities had advanced markedly between 1773 and 1775. Multi-work recordings of Mozart's violin concertos often omit his first violin concerto, since it reveals a musical inspiration less compelling than in the others. The Rondo in B♭, K. 269, for violin and orchestra, also is connected to this concerto. It was intended to replace the finale movement and was composed to fulfil the recommendation of Antonio Brunetti, a violinist in Salzburg at the time. It was obviously composed to "modernise" the concerto in light of the new trend for rondo finales in solo concertos during the mid-1770s. Nonetheless, typically the concerto is performed with the original finale and the K. 269 Rondo remains a separate concert piece.

The Violin Concerto No. 3 in G major, K. 216, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Salzburg in 1775 when he was 19 years old. In a letter to his father, Mozart called it the "Strasbourg Concerto". Researchers believe this epithet comes from the motive in the third movement's Allegretto in the central section, a local dance that already had appeared as a musette-imitating tune in a symphony by Carl Ditters von Dittersdorf.

Violin Concerto No. 4 in D major, K. 218, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1775 in Salzburg. The autograph of the score is preserved in the Biblioteka Jagiellońska, Kraków. He seemed to have originally composed it for himself to play, but after leaving the Salzburg Court Orchestra, he changed and updated the concerto for the successor of his position in his orchestra, Antonio Brunetti, to play. It is debatable whether the concerto was above Mozart's level of mastery or if he purposely made the concerto difficult for Brunetti on account of his greater ability. The first movement is nicknamed the “military” Mozart Concerto while the second movement consists of melodic lines. The third movement is joyful and full of fun.

The Violin Concerto No. 5 in A major, K. 219, often referred to by the nickname "Turkish", was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1775, premiering during the Christmas season that year in Salzburg. It follows the typical fast–slow–fast musical structure with certain deviations from the main tempo in the outer movements.
