Classical Music / Sonata for Violin and Piano, K. 378
Wolfgang A. Mozart composed more than a dozen or so sonatas for piano and violin. He started writing them in the 1760s (he wasn't even a teenager) and continued writing them in 1781, the year he left Salzburg and moved to Vienna, never to return to his city of birth. Some of these sonatas include the six Mannheim Sonatas of 1778, and Mozart's four glorious late works during the mid- and late 1780s.
Violin and Piano Sonata No. 26 in B-flat major, K. 317d (formerly K. 378), comes from the 1781 set. Some biographers seem to think that the piece might have been composed two years earlier, that is, in 1779, while he was still in Salzburg.
