Piano Sonata No. 6 (Mozart)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 6 in D major, K 284 (205b) (1775) is a sonata in three movements:

  1. Allegro
  2. Rondo and Polonaise (andante)
  3. Theme with variations

A typical performance takes about 24 minutes.

The piece is subtitled "Dürnitz" as it was written for Baron von Dürnitz, an amateur bassoonist and keyboard-player, who failed to pay for the work.

The work was written down during the visit Mozart paid to Munich for the production of La finta giardiniera from late 1774 to the beginning of the following March.
