Question
Sarah Willis juxtaposed Cuban dance rhythms with Mozart’s four works of this type in her Mozart y Mambo project. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this type of piece. Mozart called his friend Joseph Leutgeb (“YOH-seff LOIT-geb”) “ass, ox, and simpleton” in the notes to the third work of this type written for him.
ANSWER: horn concertos [or horn concerti; accept French horn concerto or natural horn concerto; prompt on concertos or concerti; reject English horn concerto] (Sarah Willis was the first female brass player in the Berlin Philharmonic when she joined in 2001.)
[10e] Mozart used this form in the hunt-themed third movement of his last horn concerto. His 11th piano sonata contains a Turkish March written in this form sometimes called “[this form] alla turca.”
ANSWER: rondo [accept Rondo alla turca]
[10m] Willis also recorded “Sarahnade mambo,” an arrangement of this Mozart piece. This G major serenade for strings is catalogued as K. 525 but is better known under a nickname.
ANSWER: Eine kleine Nachtmusik [or A Little Night Music; or Serenade No. 13 for strings in G major]
